Summer is in full swing, and it's the perfect time to upgrade your wardrobe of sunglasses for everything from outdoor activities to fun in the sun with your family and more.

According to New York ophthalmologist Dr. Martin E. Lederman, sunglasses are an important addition to protecting your eyes from potential harm. "There's some evidence that ultraviolet rays can cause cataracts, so we want to make sure we're protecting against that with the right pair of sunglasses," he told "Good Morning America" lifestyle contributor Lori Bergamotto.

Lederman suggests looking for a pair that's comfortable.

"If your sunglasses are leaving indentations on the bridge of your nose or under your eyes, they’re too tight," Lederman advised. Alternatively, he recommended trying a pair that's shatter-resistant and offers both UVA/UVB protection so the lenses absorb the sun's harmful rays.

If you're in the market for new sunglasses, but unsure where to start —not to worry! Team "The Right Stuff" did the work for you and found five awesome pairs just below.

"Goodr burst on the scene less than 10 years ago and has become an absolute go-to for runners, hikers, cyclers, and outdoor enthusiasts alike," said Bergamotto. "So, it’s no surprise that you can find these glare-reducing, polarized lenses with UVA and UVB protection at REI."

The brand has over 7000 five-star reviews, and many people love that no matter how much you're sweating, these non-slip frames stay firmly in place.

Kid pick

Created by parents, this pair offers 100% UVA and UVB protection in polarized, impact-resistant lenses with flexible frames — "key for curious (or clumsy!) kids," said Bergamotto. There's also an incredible one year guarantee stating if your child loses or breaks them in the first year, you'll receive a free pair.

Additionally, there are four sizes from newborn to 12 years old, and in over 25 colors and styles, there's something for every family.

"So many of the summer accessories trends we see are born out of the festival scene — and there's been no sunglasses brand as prominent as Quay in that world," said Bergamotto.

Designed in California, Quay has been a longtime partner with celebrities and influencers such as Kylie Jenner, Maluma, Ashley Graham and now SZA for exclusive collections that are fresh and modern. One standout pick from SZA's collection includes a pair with narrow Y2K-inspired square frames that are lightweight with an iridescent lens.

"If you want to level up your sunglass game, the Meta Smart Glasses are the ones to get," said Bergamotto. "Made by Ray-Ban, which has been an innovator and industry leader for over 75 years, these smart glasses are part protective eyewear/ part virtual assistant."

These sunglasses allow you to snap, share and save high-quality photos and videos; make voice or video calls, play music, get directions and even ask Meta AI questions about what you see and get fast answers — all without losing the ambient noise of your surroundings.
