The Importance of Sunglasses for Children from Birth

The Importance of Sunglasses for Children from Birth

Protecting your child's eyes from UV rays is crucial from birth. Children’s eyes are more susceptible to UV damage due to their clearer and underdeveloped eyes. It takes five years for a baby's eyes to fully develop, allowing more UV light to reach the retina. This exposure can lead to serious eye conditions later in life, such as cataracts and macular degeneration.

Starting Early with Mokki Click & Change

Introduce Mokki Click & Change sunglasses early to help your child get used to wearing them. These sunglasses are designed with the Montessori ideology in mind, encouraging children to participate in assembling their own eyewear. This involvement makes them proud of their sunglasses, fostering a love for wearing them daily. Here are some tips:

Start Early: Introduce Mokki Click & Change sunglasses when your child is an infant.
Lead by Example: Wear sunglasses regularly to set a positive example.
Choose the Right Sunglasses: Mokki Click & Change sunglasses fit well, are comfortable, and provide 100% UV protection.
Consistency is Key: Make sunglasses a regular part of going outside.
Risks of Not Wearing Sunglasses

Without proper eye protection, children are exposed to UV radiation, which can cause:

Cataracts: Clouding of the eye's lens.
Macular Degeneration: Damage to the retina.
Pterygium: Growth of tissue on the eye.
Skin Cancer: Increased risk around the eyelids.
Tips to Overcome Resistance

Make It Fun: Mokki Click & Change sunglasses allow children to build their own sunglasses with parental help, making it an engaging activity.
Positive Reinforcement: Praise your child for wearing their custom-built sunglasses.
Comfort Matters: Ensure Mokki Click & Change sunglasses are comfortable and fit well.
