What does it mean when it isn't a sticker? I own Rayban, Oakley, and Persol, all purchased from their website or authorized dealers, and my glasses never came with the uv sticker

95% of sunglasses are only UVA and UVB protected, which is doctors recommend for eye health. Going UV400 is over the top in most cases.

If there is no sticker it may be written somewhere on the inside of the frame

Cool. An explanation of why they do this would've been nice. Interesting none the less

[@chaotikkiller1617]

If you have sunglasses that DON'T block UV light but do dim your visible light then you'll be massively at risk of eye damage as your pupil widens and takes on even more UV.

@@chaotikkiller1617 ah okay. Thanks for the explanation

[@frasereye]

We want to block light up to 400 nanometers because these are the light rays that are most harmful to your eye.
