Most of us hardly care about the quality of these glasses and its effects on our health. Researchers and scientists claim that overusing these low-quality sunglasses can lead to numerous eye problems.

These coloring chemicals in the glasses will melt at a certain temperature and it sticks to the skin surface. It will ruin your good looks.
