My First Shades (TM)

Summer may soon be officially over, but the sun shines all year around, and we need to protect those little eyes.  My First Shades™ has come up with a new sunglass design that provides vital sun protection for childrens' eyes, while also starting them down a long path of sun safety. The sunglasses are attached to a neoprene band which holds the glasses closer to the childʼs face, more securely in place, and, ultimately, minimizes peripheral light that can lead to eye damage. These shades will help children decrease childrens' risk of sun damage to their eyes that can eventually lead to impaired vision, cataracts, and blindness. Fun, fashionable designs and safe! Infant and children's sizes available at www.myfirstshades.com $14.99.
