Why Children’s Eyes Need Sun Protection

Warm sunshine invites kids to play outside—and while we encourage them to explore the outdoors, it’s crucial to protect their sensitive eyes from the sun. Children’s pupils are larger and their eye lenses are clearer than adults’, which means more radiation can reach the inside of the eye.

The risk of long-term damage to children’s eyes from too much sun exposure is significantly higher than it is for adults.

That’s why sunglasses aren’t just a fashion accessory—they’re essential protection, especially for kids and teens. Our GAMSKIDS sunglasses don’t only deliver reliable eye protection; they’re also durable and functional.

Why are robust sunglasses so important?

Kids and teenagers are full of energy and curiosity. They run, play, and discover the world around them. So their sunglasses need to hold up to everyday action. GAMSKIDS sunglasses are made from resilient materials designed to withstand falls, bumps, and accidental bending—making them extremely tough and dependable. Our lenses are made from shatter-resistant polycarbonate with 100% UVA and UVB protection.

More benefits of sunglasses with a high share of flexible materials:

Besides durability, flexible sunglasses are ideal for kids and teens because they adapt to different head shapes and sizes. The flexible frame supports a comfortable fit without pressure points, so the sunglasses stay in place while playing, running around, or doing sports.

GAMSKIDS sunglasses are available for babies, children, and teenagers.
