Sunglasses

Eyewear fitted with tinted or coated lenses to protect the eyes from bright sunlight and ultraviolet radiation.
The world's first sunglasses were invented about 2,000 years ago by Arctic indigenous people. They carved animal bones or ivory to fit the face with thin slits, preventing snow blindness from UV rays reflected off the snow.
