Glacier glasses - Category 4 filtering

Dixon glacier glasses with side shields to block intense lightGlacier glasses and goggles are specially designed to provide maximum eye protection from intense sunlight when trekking or climbing on snow covered slopes.

Normal sunglasses are as good as useless for preventing snow blindness because they do not filter enough light.

Bear in mind that in mountain environments in winter, snow reflects 85% of UV rays and their intensity increases by 10% for every 1000 metres of altitude.
