Eyelet SunPlus: An Easy Way to Protect Kids’ Eyes Outdoors
- Feb 6
- 2 min read
Children who wear prescription spectacles still require proper sun protection outdoors. However, standard sunglasses do not accommodate prescription lenses. This often leaves children choosing between clear vision and eye protection, or forgoing sunglasses entirely.
Eyelet SunPlus is designed specifically to address this gap. It allows children to enjoy sun protection while continuing to see clearly through their prescription glasses.
What Eyelet SunPlus is
Eyelet SunPlus is a sunglass add on that fully covers prescription spectacles. Once attached, it transforms regular glasses into a complete pair of sunglasses, without altering the original lenses.
From the front, SunPlus appears as a unified sunglasses design rather than an obvious clip on. This seamless appearance helps children feel comfortable and confident wearing it outdoors.
Designed differently from standard clip ons
Conventional clip ons often sit visibly on top of lenses, creating gaps and an uneven appearance. Eyelet SunPlus is designed to conform closely to the spectacles, attaching securely with minimal contact gaps.
This close fit ensures a clean look and stable positioning, even during active movement.
Materials and construction
Eyelet SunPlus is built with carefully selected components to support daily use:
Plano polarised sun lenses with UV400 protection
Knotted stoppers to keep the lenses securely in place
Titanium plate with hook for strength and durability
Highly resilient elastic band for flexible attachment
Hand stitched holes using nylon string, awarded the IF Design Gold Award
These details contribute to both performance and longevity.
Adaptable as children grow
Children’s spectacles change as they grow. Eyelet SunPlus is designed with flexibility in mind.
The elastic band stretches from 30mm to 70mm, allowing it to fit a wide range of frame sizes, shapes, and thicknesses. As children transition to larger spectacles, the same SunPlus can often continue to fit, within the supported size range.
This adaptability makes SunPlus a practical option over time.
Comfortable vision outdoors
SunPlus lenses are polarised to reduce glare that commonly causes squinting, watery eyes, and visual discomfort. A hard coating strengthens the lenses and helps reduce surface scratches from frequent handling.
Combined with UV400 protection, SunPlus supports clearer and more comfortable vision during outdoor activities.
A note from Eyelet
For parents looking to support their child’s vision outdoors while maintaining clear prescription wear, Eyelet SunPlus offers a thoughtful solution designed for everyday use.

This post about protecting kids’ eyes outdoors feels like a gentle reminder that small habits make big differences shade, breaks, and thoughtful care all matter. Learning to finish your undergraduate level course online once taught me about steady pacing through long days, not sprinting. That same sense of mindful rhythm and everyday protection comes through clearly in this blog’s advice.
