Best sunglasses for Impact and UV protection?

Question

I work outside a lot doing lawncare services, and while using a trimmer often times things fly up and hit me face and eyes. I'm also looking for a pair of sunglasses that offers good UV protection too. What brands/styles should I look in to? Also I dont want something that looks ridiculous and am willing to spend money. Thx

Answer 1

don't get  glass, they scratch easily.. get a poly carbonate material w/ scratch resistance and UVA and UVB protection in the lenses.. you might want to buy a wrap around pair too if you've got things flying in the air.  You can get a decent pair around a hundred bucks... more if you want a prescription in them!

Answer 2

polycarbonate or trivex are best for impact resistance.

Since you work outside a lot, consider Transitions or polarized lenses. VEry nice.
