What should you consider when choosing sunglasses for children?

CE marking and ISO 12312-1:2013 (A1:2015) Make sure the sunglasses are marked with CE and meet the requirements of ISO 12312-1:2013 (A1:2015). This marking guarantees that the product is safe and complies with the EU's health and environmental regulations.

UV400 protection for maximum sun protection Choose sunglasses with UV400 protection, which means they block 100% of harmful UVA and UVB rays. Children's eyes are especially sensitive to UV radiation, so this protection is crucial.
