2016 Sunglasses- Part 1 : Style Report

Here we are in July- the beginning of summer in the Pacific Northwest and we are READY at Binyon Vision Center!  We know you’re asking yourself…

What’s #trending in the 2016 sunglasses style?

Here are some of the latest trends for the 2016 sunglasses style:

  • Clear Frames – classy cool, and more subtle if you’re not into bright colors- paired best with dark grey lenses or colorful mirrored lenses.
  • Round Frames – the retro mainstay is back in a big way echoing the vibes of the 60’s/70’s scene but fresh and one of this season’s must haves.
  • Mirrored Lenses – as seen… everywhere!  Silver flash, gold flash, blue, green, red, pink – hiding your eyes behind a playful shiny lens. These are perfect for someone looking to have fun in the sun!
  • Chunky Frames – do you like high impact?  Oversized suns get a fresh update with thick, bold lines and layers of color.
  • Cateye Frames – a continued shining star in the sunglasses world include new features for 2016 – embellishments, mirrored lenses and ultra exaggerated shape.

Cataract, Not Cadillac

“Do you see a Cadillac in there?” asked a patient. I smile and say, “no Cadillac, but yes you have a cataract.” With enough birthdays we all get them, but not all progress enough to remove. It is a haziness to the lens that may get dense enough to decrease vision and make glare problems. Can’t stop them, but can be slowed down with UV protection sunglasses and keeping your circulation system in top shape.
