Just saying......
Thanks - all my lenses have had UV protection for as long as it has been available, I will also check about UVB, it may have it, not sure. Thank goodness for plastic polycarbonate lenses. I have always been conscious of being in the sun, and shielding my eyes as well, as even as a child my folks made sure were were careful about that, as I am also very pale ( we all are) and sunburned easily. I'd say I feel like a poster child for skin cancer, but not as bad as Paul, as he's already had some removed, and has annual check for it. Irish skin like his is notoriously vulnerable, even if he has dark hair.
