According to the Cleveland Clinic, those who wear sunglasses year-round can benefit every day. Advantages include: 1) blocking harmful UVA and UVB light, 2) preventing headaches and migraines caused by direct sunlight, 3) reducing eye strain, 4) reducing glare and improving vision, 5) offering protection from wind, dust and debris, 6) helping to prevent eye diseases like cataracts and macular degeneration, and 7) helping to prevent skin cancer and wrinkles from around your eyes among others.
