Grabbing our sunglasses on the way out of the door is second nature for many of us. But what about protecting baby’s sensitive eyes from those powerful UV rays? Thankfully, there are a ton of baby sunglasses in the market now – from polarized to impact-resistant. Our little ones can get out and enjoy the sunshine safely, all while looking snazzy in cute sunglasses.

Highly affordable option.
The flexible rubber frames on these sunglasses tolerate rambunctious play or baby’s attempts to escape them. The 100 percent UVA/UVB protection helps protect young babies from damaging their sight, especially when they’re young enough to have poor head and neck control. A 1-year manufacturer’s warranty offers extra peace of mind. Reviewers note that, while advertised for birth-24 months of age use, they aren’t adjustable enough to ensure a comfortable fit for newborns.
Review Highlights
I’ve been using these with my 7 Month Old for over a month now. They are slightly curved, which fits the frame of her face perfectly. The band is long. I have to pull it back further in order to make it tight around baby’s face and less likely to move. It’s doable, but the band sticks out to the side and looks funny as there is no velcro past a certain point.”
