Enjoy the Sunshine with Shades

Sunglasses are more than a trendy accessory for sunny days. Your shades can enhance your style and are also essential for sun safety. Wearing sunglasses can help prevent eye diseases, including cataracts, macular degeneration, photokeratitis, and more.

Blocking the sun’s harmful UV rays with 100 percent UV protection can let you enjoy the sunshine without risking eye damage. We carry sunglasses for every age and every style. Protect your vision and love your look. Visit Santa Cruz Optometric Center to try on your new pair of shades.
