Even when I have numerous pairs of sunglasses just sitting in my car – trust me, there are a lot of them – I am always looking for a new pair to shield my eyes from harmful UV rays and blue light.
So in the quest to find the perfect pair of sunglasses, I have found five sunglasses from Indiegogo and Kickstarter that will not only help block out the sun’s brightness, but will look great as well.
