We don’t just change clothes with the seasons, we should also adapt our glasses. Light, weather, and our activities vary a lot throughout the year, and all of that influences the most suitable type of glasses. Here’s a practical guide so your glasses accompany you with style and functionality all year long.
Spring: Transition, allergies, and more sun
What you need:
You need UV protection for the first intense rays
Photochromic lenses for changing days, this is very important for your eyes
Comfortable glasses if you have sensitivity due to allergies or contact lens use
Recommendation:
Opt for lightweight frames, light or pastel colors, and transition lenses to adapt to changing light.
Summer: Intense sun and outdoor activities
What you need:
You need 100% UV400 protection
Polarized lenses (for beach, driving, or mountains) would be the best choice
Durable and comfortable glasses for heat
Recommendation:
Wraparound or large coverage models, mirrored or matte finish. Dark or gradient lenses are also ideal.
A tip: Take the opportunity to play with bolder colors or oversized sunglasses.
Autumn: Less light, more contrast
What you need:
You need lenses with good contrast for cloudy days
Warm tones (amber, brown, copper) to enhance the color of your surroundings
Elegant and adaptable style
Recommendation:
Glasses with brown or yellow lenses that enhance vision in low-light environments. Metal or acetate frames in earth tones are ideal.
Winter: Low light and intense reflections
What you need:
You need protection against glare from snow or white surfaces
Anti-reflective + contrast filters
Glasses with good grip if you do winter sports
Recommendation:
Gray or polarized lenses with UV protection even on cloudy days. Use frames that protect against wind or fit well under hats or helmets.
A tip: Even if it’s cold, winter sun can still harm your eyes. Don’t put away your sunglasses!
