ABSTRACT:
A pair of sportglasses comprises a large, curved polymer lens (10) sized and shaped to shield the front and sides of the face from harmful solar radiation which may cause accelerated skin aging and skin cancer after repeated exposure. The lens has main portions (11) which cover the eyes (31) and cheeks (32), lower portions (13) which extend down the front of the face past the level of the mouth on either side to cover the side portions of the face (33), and rear portions (14) which wrap around the sides of the face to cover the sides of the face as far back as the ears. The large lens has an optical coating which significantly attenuates ultraviolet radiation, the most harmful component of sunlight, to protect most of the face from the damaging effects which may result after repeated exposure. A detachable nosepiece (19) protects the nose. The nostrils and mouth are left uncovered such that breathing and speaking are not impaired.
