Babiators: Shades For Your Sweeties

Recently, we discovered the adorable Babiators and my daughter hasn’t put them down since. These sunglasses are safe, durable and awesome.

Babiators protect your child’s eyes at a critical time – Babiators’ lenses offer 100% protection from UVA and UVB rays – but why should we be concerned about protecting our children’s eyes from UV exposure?

Children’s sensitive skin needs sunscreen to limit dangerous UV exposure and their eyes need protection too.

Here are the facts:

When compared to adult’s eyes, children’s eyes have fewer natural protections against UV exposure, making them more likely to be damaged.

The more time you spend outdoors, the more susceptible you are to sun damage. Published scientific research concludes that up to 50% of lifetime UV ray exposure may occur by age 18, so it’s imperative that we protect our children’s eyes now!

According to Dr. J. Keller Wortham, a physician with Optimum Wellness Family Medical Group in Los Angeles, excessive exposure to the sun during daily activities can contribute to cataract formation, macular degeneration, pinguecula and pterygium (growth on the eye’s surface), photokeratitis (snow blindness), and skin cancer on the eyelids. Those are a lot of big words, but the bottom line is this: protecting your children’s eyes is critical.

The EPA recommends you wear sunglasses even on days with a low UV index!

Given that children’s eyes do not have as many natural protections from UV, children spend more time in the sun than adults, and time in the sun can lead to permanent eye damage, we feel it just makes sense for kids to wear sunglasses!

When it’s bright outside, adults wear sunglasses – our children should do the same!

BPA-Free!
When babies grab onto something, where’s the first place it goes? Their mouths! That’s why it’s imperative that anything made for babies be safe – and that’s the idea behind Babiators.

Babiators are made without BPA, without phthalates, and without lead-based paint – we know because we test every shipment to make sure! So when you buy Babiators, you can rest assured that you are buying the safest sunglasses out there for your little one!

Here is my daughter’s thoughts on her hot pink babiators….

“I like my babiators because they keep my eyes away from the sun. I like that they are pink because that’s my favorite color. And purple… is my favorite color.”
