    Disclaimer: This video was made in partnership with Randolph Engineering. This is honestly one of my favorite brands out there and would recommend them to all my friends and family. I only collaborate with companies I think will be of value to our viewers.
    When looking for the best sunglasses, there are few things you should keep in mind.
    1. Find a sunglasses frame that fits
    👉TIP: Don’t worry about finding the right sunglasses for your face shape, it is all about the attitude and “the look” you want. As long as they are not too small, they should work great.
    🔷A unique thing about Randolph is that they have many frame sizes available (many sunglasses brands don’t)
    2. Sunglasses Lens Options to consider
    Try Crown Glass lenses in your sunglasses such as Randolph’s SkyTec lenses
    - Best optical quality
    - Hard to scratch
    - Experience True Colors
    🔸For a lightweight option try Randolph’s SkyForce lenses
    - Nylon lenses are 40% lighter than glass lenses
    - More scratch resistant and better optics than polycarbonate lenses
    🔹Try Gradient lenses such as Randolph’s SkyForce Air lenses
    - Full tint at the top with lighter tint at the bottom for easy reading
    - Full UV light protection through the whole lens
    3. Sunglasses Lens Colors
    American Grey Lenses: Standard Neutral lenses - great for all purposes
    Randolph’s lenses have a Luminous Transmittivity of 17.5 % - Ideal for true color and contrast adaption in any environment.
    AGX Green Lenses: One of my personal favorites - Green sunglasses lenses enhance yellow and green colors while offering a truly relaxing experience
    Tan/Brown lenses: These lenses can slightly enhance contrast and depth perception which can be ideal on both sunny and cloudy days.

    The best sunglasses I ever had were called "golf tint." They were gradient brown from the top and gradient green up from the bottom. The brown on top made the sky very blue and the green on the bottom made the grass really pop. I've never found anyplace else that does it, and the place I got them is closed.

The whole lifetime warranty, made in America, and crazy high tech glass lenses really fit the bill. I managed to get a pair of P3s and a pair of aviators.

    • @DoctorEyeHealth
      @DoctorEyeHealth  4 роки тому +5

      I imagine that is because the cataracts are causing a lot of glare. Are you a candidate for cataract surgery yet? You can get darker tinted sunwear by either finding companies that make them darker or at a local optical shop, as they can order or even make sunglasses tints themselves. They can tailer make your sunglasses as dark as you want.

    It (pleasantly) surprised me to hear you recommend high quality glass lenses. My optician discouraged me from wearing my Maui Jim’s because of the glass, citing safety reasons...because a blow to the glass could potentially shatter the glass and pierce the eye. I would agree if the incidence of that happening is considerable but I haven’t heard it happening to anyone that I know and the fact you recommend glass lenses must mean the incidence is very low? I think that if he used the same logic, I shouldn’t drive a car because I could get killed in an accident...which is a risk but rather low. Would you say that’s fair to say that the risk of eye injury from the glass breaking is low?

    • @young_dementia
      @young_dementia 2 роки тому +2

      He probably discouraged it because you could sue him if something did happen and he didn't say anything. That's why, even though glass is optically the best, most places don't sell them because they don't want to deal with something actually happening.

      Hey thanks and good question. There may not be a specific healing benefit from tinted lenses but glasses with more of an amber or yellow tint are sometimes recommended for people with retinal disease as the filtering of blue light “may” help protect the retina from excessive oxidative stress. But that is more theory than clinical evidence.

    I have some questions. Do sunglasses loose their UV 400 protection over time? Does sun exposure fade the UV protection on theglasses through irradiation? Fo Polycarbonate loose their inherent UV protection over time with UV exposure? I have understood Polycarbonate is an inherent safe material regards never loosing its UV protection while CR 39 lenses loose their UV 400 coating after 2 years of sun exposure. I live in a semi desert Zone like Arizona or New Mexico is were the sun is allways very strong. I understood Polycarbonate is the best material for UV safety (never loosing it without the wearer notice it) sincethe material itself blocks 97% of the UV rays.
    What do you say?

    • @P1015532oni
      @P1015532oni 7 місяців тому

      I’m a war veteran. We were not allowed to wear sunglasses that were not polycarbonate during operations. People in the glasses industry crap on polycarbonate but only polycarbonate are shatter-proof. Riot shields are made of polycarbonate. Polycarbonate stops shrapnel. Polycarbonate are what shooting glasses are made off. I love polycarbonate because I don’t like to baby my glasses.
      Edit: yes, and heard they don’t lose the UV400 protection also.

    Several years ago I found a pair of Vuarnet sunglasses. One early morning I was on a foggy lake in Canada and the view from these sunglasses was incredible-extremely vivid, almost surreal view like the colors/land/fog/water popped-it was glorious. Then (long story short) they fell into the lake. I have wanted to replace them ever since but I do not know what they were. Vuarnet sells lenses called PX2000, PX 3000, PX 5000 and one referred to as Skilynx. From my description can you tell me which sunglasses I likely found/lost?

    I got my first Randolph sunglasses few days ago. Aviator Bright Chrome with American Gray non-polarized lenses for flying airplanes. The P3 with Northern Lights is in my wishlist along with the Concorde with Cobalt lenses. I have Ray-bans with standard polarized and chromance lenses and a Oakley with polarized Prizm lenses and they are all really good but the Skytec Glass lenses are in another level. You can't explain the difference but you feel somehow it's better. I just don't like it more because it isn't polarized (but had to be that way). It's the only one I can wear inside my motorcycle helmet because if you wear polarized ones with the helmet face shield you gonna feel really sick because this combination distorts the image and colors. It doesn't happen if the lenses are not polarized. I learned that in the hard way. Another point for Randolph is the baionet temple design who makes it very easy to wear with headsets or any type of helmet.

    • @DoctorEyeHealth
      @DoctorEyeHealth  2 роки тому +1

      Hey Krishna! Anti-glare is just another way of saying Anti-reflective coating. It is best to have anti reflective coatings on both sides of spectacle lenses and at least on the backside of sunglasses. Dust and water repellent is a coating that is often combined with better or higher end anti-reflectives. Polycarb lenses naturally block almost 100% UV light and are more impact resistant, but do tend to scratch easier and have more color distortion.

      Yes, there are 2 brands I know of. Either Enchroma (highest quality I know of but in the 300 range) and pilestone (100 range). Both are found on their websites or through amazon. Here was my Enchroma review. ua-cam.com/video/fsdpQW7_eTc/v-deo.html

    • @GavinEarnshaw
      @GavinEarnshaw 11 місяців тому +1

      Most photochromic glasses require UV to darken. In the car the windows block this so your lenses don't get darker.
      I have Transitions Drivewear which are designed to work partly from visible light so do get darker in the car. I've also got Transitions Signature V8 and they do go a little dark in the car. I drive an old Land Rover so pretty much always have the window open - as there is no room for your elbow 😎
      Overall I am happier with contacts and Serengeti wraparound sunglasses. But the Drivewear are good too.

    Video suggestion: "How to buy sport goggles for adults". Whenever shopping for sport goggles, I find most shops only have frames for children. They will try to sell me the largest child's size. "No thanks". And are absolutely clueless about appropriate frames - will not shatter on impact by a ball, shuttlecock, racket, indoor hockey, etc. So the challenge I am having is: frames for adults & how to stop fogging.
    Is this true? The higher the index, the more difficult it is to fit the lens into sport goggles since most sport goggles are curved.

    • @DoctorEyeHealth
      @DoctorEyeHealth  4 роки тому +3

      Really good question!!! It can be a tough decision, I think transitions are great but unless you get the XTRA active ones they do not work fully in the car. Transitions can also be a pain for photos outside (think weddings and other events) The only downside to the prescription sunglasses is you need to carry around a second pair of eyewear. Otherwise I am a fan of both lol.

    Hi i'm a complete noob at sunglasses, i bought a pair of Ray-Ban Caravan last year, they have the classic green Ray-Ban lens and are not polarized, and unfortunately they're not enough for me as i have quite sensitive eyes (i have mild autism which causes me to have very large pupils most of the time so going out on a sunny day kinda feels like being on an inhospitable planet) i still have to squint a bit while wearing them, and also get red and watery eyes by just staying in the sun for a few minutes (even while wearing sunglasses).
    I was considering a pair of Randolph Aviators (that's how i got here) with grey polarized lenses, do you think that's going to be enough for sensitive eyes or maybe i should go for the cobalt or green lenses? I don't need to be able to stare at the sun with my eyes wide open, i just want to be comfortable walking around on sunny days.
    Thanks in advance!
