Sun Safety, Whatever the Weather
Regina is one of the sunniest cities in Canada. While the weather can get cold and the snow can pile up, sun safety is important, no matter what time of year.
The sun’s ultraviolet rays can damage your sight and increase your risk of eye diseases. If you’re enjoying a snow day or spending a day at the beach enjoying the water, the sun can reflect off of the snow and water, exposing your eyes to UV rays.
Cloudy days don’t offer much protection either. UV rays can easily penetrate clouds. So, on one of those rare dreary Saskatchewan days, you will still need your protective eyewear.
Our eyewear gallery offers brands for every budget and style, including exclusive collections you won’t find anywhere else. Prescription and non-prescription options are available.
Stop by our gallery and let our team help you select the perfect pair.
Protect Your Eyes, But in Style
Our sun styles will provide you protection, with a side of haute-couture. We offer an exclusive range of sunwear, with several styles only available at Advance Eye Care Center.
VANNI is an Italian brand, launched in Turin in 1990. For the last 30 years, they have been creating artistic, experimental, and stylish frames. VANNI frames are created in Italian factories, the product of years of research and refining.
Blackfin is another unique brand we provide. They create frames from titanium. The titanium is purchased in Japan and crafted into stunning eyewear in Italy. Blackfin describes their frames as masterpieces of engineering, technology, and design. They are absolutely correct.

BMW
Look great on and off the road with new BMW eyewear from Aspex. The custom-made designs are assembled from the highest quality materials on the market, including titanium, acetate, stainless steel, and NXT.
Maui Jim
Maui Jim is the fastest growing maker of premium polarized sunglasses, prescription sunglasses, and ophthalmic frames in the world! It all began in Lahaina, Hawaii, with a need for sunglasses that could eliminate the harsh Hawaiian glare without distorting the colors of the island scenery. Today, Maui Jim also produces stunning, high-quality ophthalmic frames.
Oakley
Oakley invents each new product with a design philosophy called sculptural physics: the discipline of solving problems with science and wrapping them in art. Supported by an infrastructure that includes the latest tools of technology, Oakley engineers and artisans continue to expand the company’s array of product categories.
Rebel
An urban, sporty style for the young at heart: contrasting colors and streamlined designs for optical frames and sunglasses with polarized lenses. A Morel Lunettes brand.
Spine
Inspired by the interaction between vertebrae, SPINE solves age-old hinge limitations. Typical optical hinges have ‘dead points’, meaning they are either open, or shut, and nothing in-between. They do not naturally have ‘give’. This limits comfort and increases fragility.
Toms
Shop Tom’s sunglasses for a quirky, retro look you can’t get anywhere else! Choose from fun and funky styles like tortoise and crystal, in mirrored or matte. Plus, with every pair you buy, you give back to those in need. Our One for One program has helped restore sight to over 500, 000 people in need through prescription glasses, sight-saving surgery, and medical treatment.
Zac Posen
Founded in a single-room studio in 2002, Zac Posen has grown into a worldwide fashion brand known for artfully crafted designs. Their sunglasses use acetate and metal to create durable, iconic frames that stand the test of time.
