Spring Refresh: Sunglasses, Skin Care, and Contact Lenses That Fit Your Life

As the weather warms up, your eyes need just as much care as your wardrobe or skin routine.
At Spadina Optometry, we think about spring eye care as a 3-part refresh.


πŸ•ΆοΈ 1. Sunglasses that actually protect

Not all sunglasses are created equal.
Ours offer:

  • 100% UVA/UVB protection
  • Polarized lenses to reduce glare
  • Prescription and non-prescription options
  • Modern, flattering styles for city life

You’ll look good β€” and see clearly.


🌞 2. Skin care for sensitive eyes

Many sunscreens and skincare products can cause eye irritation β€” especially for contact lens wearers. Our general advice? Avoid applying sunscreen below the eyebrows or within the orbital rim (the bony edge around your eye). That area is more sensitive β€” and often already covered by your sunglasses.

Speaking of sunglasses, they do more than protect against UV rays. They also reduce the need to apply sunscreen near your eyes. We carry a curated selection of prescription and non-prescription sunglasses designed for:

  • All-day wear in the city or cottage
  • Active use like cycling and running
  • Modern, flattering styles that actually fit

Protect your eyes from both sun and irritation β€” the easy way.


πŸ‘οΈ 3. Contact lenses built for spring

From dry spring winds to active weekends, the right lenses make a difference.
We can help you find lenses that offer:

  • All-day hydration and comfort
  • Better vision for outdoor sports and cycling
  • Travel-friendly convenience (like daily disposables)
