Description

KIETLA Wazz children’s sunglasses feature the classic design of adult Keyhole sunglasses, allowing kids to look more like mom and dad. There are no screws in the glasses, which prevents small parts from ending up in a child’s fingers and mouth. The glasses have a single-piece very flexible, durable frame. The lenses offer high 3-category UV protection and are made of durable polycarbonate.

Usage: Although Kietla glasses are very durable with an unbreakable frame, they are not toys. Please ensure that the child does not rub them against stones or chew on them as this could scratch the lenses.

Does a baby need to wear sunglasses?

Babies’ and children’s eyes should be especially protected from harmful sunlight on hot sunny summer days because their eye protection capacity is low: a child’s pupil is wide, the lens is crystal clear, and moreover, they tend to look upwards more than adults. Children are at greater risk of eye damage from excessive sun exposure.

Do regular dark lenses also protect babies’ eyes?

Eyes are not protected from solar radiation by dark lenses, but by UV protection. Wearing glasses with simply dark-tinted lenses without UV protection is extremely dangerous for the eyes because the eye’s natural defense mechanisms: squinting and pupil contraction, do not activate with dark lenses. Thus, much more UV radiation enters the eye than without sunglasses.
