But sunglasses are more than just a fashion statement, and brands are finding ways to provide lenses that are both fashionable and practical to consumers. From eyeglasses with photochromic transition lenses, to sunglasses with polarized lenses or even night vision lenses, the top brands have thought of it all. So on your quest for eyewear that\u2019s both stylish and useful, take a look at this list of the top five sunglasses brands according to Ranker.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Ray-Ban:<\/strong> This brand has been on top of the eyewear food chain since the 90s &#8212; it sold 10 million units worldwide in 1998. A certain style of Ray-Ban, the Wayfarer, has been available since 1953 and is reported to be the best-selling style in history. It was made famous by many celebrities, including the fictional Blues Brothers. Using anti-glare technology, Ray-Ban\u2019s polarized sunglasses increase clarity and reduce eye strain.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Maui Jim:<\/strong> This brand\u2019s humble beginnings took place on the beautiful Hawaiian island of Maui. With sun in mind in more ways than one, Maui Jim makes sunglasses in a variety of styles, from aviator to cat-eye, all with polarized lenses that block 100 percent UV rays.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Oakley, Inc.:<\/strong> This brand designs sports equipment as well as sunglasses, so you can bet you\u2019ll find sunglasses suitable for wear while playing sports within their repertoire. Oakley makes fashion sunglasses as well, but it\u2019s a go-to brand for sport performance sunglasses, specifically. And if you damage a pair of lenses while playing your sport of choice, you can find a pair of replacement lenses for sunglasses online. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galaxylense.com\/\">Replacement lenses for sunglasses<\/a> can be found for different styles and in different colors, polarized or non-polarized.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Persol:<\/strong> This brand\u2019s sunglasses have a classic, vintage flair. If you\u2019re a movie buff, you may recognize the Persol 714 men\u2019s sunglasses as the same style that Steve McQueen wore in the film \u201cThe Thomas Crowne Affair\u201d in 1968. Not only can you look like the \u201cKing of Cool\u201d in a pair of Persol sunglasses, but you can rest easy knowing your eyes are protected with their polarized lenses as well.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Prada:<\/strong> Bold, classy, and fresh from the runway, Prada\u2019s sunglasses are the high-end eyewear that celebrities and fashionistas sport. Though they\u2019re beautiful, they can be expensive, which is most likely why Prada isn\u2019t higher on the list. You may not find replacement lenses for sunglasses this one-of-a-kind, but think of it as an investment piece for your wardrobe.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So on your quest for eyewear that\u2019s both stylish and useful, take a look at this list of the top five sunglasses brands according to Ranker.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":119,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-118","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-sunglasses"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.galaxylense.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/118","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.galaxylense.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.galaxylense.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.galaxylense.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.galaxylense.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=118"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.galaxylense.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/118\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":120,"href":"https:\/\/www.galaxylense.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/118\/revisions\/120"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.galaxylense.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/119"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.galaxylense.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=118"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.galaxylense.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=118"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.galaxylense.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=118"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
