Did you know that 80% of world blindness is preventable? In an effort to raise awareness for visual impairments & global blindness, Tom’s #BeShady 2013 campaign is encouraging every one to wear your sunglasses indoors today. Through their Sight for One program, the proceeds of each pair of Tom’s sunglasses will go towards funding for ocular medication & sight-saving surgeries. Isn’t that amazing? I think so!
So go forth, cool people – see your local optometrist or ophthalmologist today! Remember to protect your eyes, they’re the only pair you have. So, channel your inner-Rockstar & celebrate today by wearing your sunnies indoors – it’s the rare occasion when “being shady” is totally acceptable!
Bringing the cool since 1984. This picture is just further proof that I was destined to be an optometrist – I was reppin’ the cause without even knowing it.
For those inquiring minds that want to know – This is not a paid endorsement. Eye health is near & dear to my heart; and I think this is a fabulous cause. It doesn’t matter whether you purchase a pair of Tom’s sunglasses or another brand – understand the importance of getting your eyes checked regularly (whether you have good vision or not) & protect your eyes. That will make me one happy gal!
