• The perception that stands when buying
  sunglasses is that it is the most important
  accessory for fashion to enhance looks and
  appearance. Some people might even look at it as
  an accessory that helps eye from being damaged
  from the harmful UV rays.
• Mostly people prefer wearing sunglasses in
  summers but have you wondered why spectacles are
  also important in winters as much in summers? or
  even how? Here are 4 reasons spectacles help and
  benefit you in winters
•  1. Helps in Reducing Glare
•  If you are living in an area where winter brings
  in snow, spectacles are an essential part of your
  daily wear, because the rays of sunlight are
  reflected from snow and ice causing glare which
  can blunt your vision. In such case, wearing
  spectacles can act as a shield from the reflected
  glare and improve your vision, bringing clarity
  and less eye fatigue. Consider buying gray or
  black sunglass as it is the best prospect in
  dealing with reflected glare.

• 2. Renders Vision Clarity in Extreme Weather
  Conditions
•  
• Winter comes with extreme weather conditions such
  as haze, snow, fog which we also refer to as
  low-light conditions where it becomes really hard
  for your pupil to expand enough to bring in
  adequate amount of light, which distorts your
  vision.
•  
• For such reasons, yellow, blue or purple tinted
  sunglass lens works best as they are designed in
  such a way which makes them suitable for
  conditions mentioned above, boosting your eyes
  sharpness and vision and allowing you to navigate
  easily through these extremely unpleasant weather
  conditions.
•  
• Wearing these tinted lenses is essential if you
  are much into sports like ice skating, skiing,
  snowboarding etc.

• 3. Protects From Harmful UV Rays
•  
• When talking about winters, many people perceive
  that the UV rays are not entering the earths
  surface due to cloudy atmosphere and cold but the
  truth is that no matter what the season is suns
  harmful UV rays are reaching earths surface and
  note that, not all UV rays becomes a problem in
  winters.
•  
• There are two types of UV rays UVA and UVB, the
  UVA rays will reach earth irrespective of earth
  being rotated and tilted far away from the sun
  because these are long rays and they do not
  change in intensity according to the season
  therefore, such rays can damage your eyes as much
  as they can in summers.
•  
• The UVB rays become less intense in winters due
  to the reason that they are short rays, also they
  may hardly reach earths surface therefore
  getting a sun tan is not really a problem in
  winters.
•  
• In order to maximize your eyes safety and to
  protect the sensitive part of the eye skin i.e.
  eyelids, wear sunglasses and if you are a sports
  person then try wearing wraparound style
  spectacles.

• 4. Protects Your Eyes From Dryness, Dust
  Particles and Wind
•  
• In winters, along with your skin your eyes dry as
  well, the moisture is evaporated and in order to
  prevent that wear wraparound style sunglasses.
•  
• Winters are much windier which brings more
  windblown particles that may enter your eyes
  leading to scratches, and eye problems therefore
  it is best to keep your eyes safe from dust and
  debris by wearing sunglasses. Although
  close-fitting spectacles works best in protecting
  your eyes but even normal wayfarers or aviators
  may even prevent such dust particles from
  entering your eye to some extent
