Fake Sunglasses. Replicas. They Are Dangerous!
I hate to do this to all Filipino Fashionistas, but hey, Real Chanel Sunglasses do not cost P100!
And if you think you’re getting a bargain because they look so darn good, then think again. Despite kiosks upon kiosks that can be found in any downtown in The Philippines, you know the ones that sell Ray Bans, Chanel, Calvin Klein, etc. These glasses are dangerous!
That’s right. If you don’t think that your eyes are important to you, then by all means, go ahead and keep wearing those fake sunglasses. But, remember what sunglasses are for. Except looking good they also protect your eyes from harmful UV rays.
ISN’T THAT SHOCKING? (being sarcastic here)
When you wear sunglasses, your pupils widen to accept more light. So, if you don’t wear the right protective sunglasses, you are better off not wearing sunglasses at all. There really isn’t any guarantee what kind of UV protection those lenses have (if any at all). Some claim to be polarized but usually are not. And don’t forget if you get into an accident, fake sunglasses will shatter easily. A lot of fake sunglasses may even give you headaches.
That’s why, I refuse to wear sunglasses unless they are real designer ones or ones that I buy from an optical shop. At least, with those shops you can check the protection of those lenses.
I’m a really cheap guy so I don’t buy designer sunglasses, but I have ones that cost a few more bucks than the ones you find downtown. I’ve had them checked out for their actual protection grade.
So, next time you’re thinking of buying those fake brand name sunglasses. Just think. Then Run!
Oh, I hope I still get Christmas Cards from the fake sunglass sellers out there… but if I don’t… at least I’ll be able to see clearly. But, another issue here is legality. These fake sunglasses are Illegal! How would you like to not be paid for something you made and for work that you’ve done.
All in all, Fake Sunglasses are bad. Let me extend this, Fake anything is Bad!

You are sooooooo right in what you say, kids today don’t seem to care as long as they look cool with their shades on (fakes at that!) it is only as we get older we realise the damage we could have done to our eyes.
I agree, Please don’t buy sunglasses from China. Alot of them are fake. Fake sunglasses can be very dangerous for your vision over time, as the sun gradually burns your retina which can lead to blindness over time. The effect cannot be reversed.
