Doggles to keep your dog’s eyes safe!

by Susan Mead

Doggles are goggles for dogs that have gained popularity for our four legged friends because of their practicality, ease of use, and their “coolness” factor. So why would you buy goggles for your dog? A dog’s eyes are senstitive to sunlight just like yours and mine. Just as you and I are encouraged to block UV rays from our eyes, we should do so for our dogs to prevent sun damage to the eyes. This is particularly true if your dog suffers from an increasingly common eye disease known as Pannus. While the exact causes of this disease are not known, we do know that ultraviolet radiation plays a significant role in propagating this disease. A dog with this eye disease needs chronic treatment and the disease could lead to blindness. Doggles block 99 - 100% of the UV raise, thereby minimizing sun damage to the dog’s eyes.

The lenses that are made for the doggles are shatterproof and that is a blessing for those rough and tumble dogs. For those of you who have a dog that enjoys riding with their head out the car window (not a great idea, but some still do it), and you fear, dust, dirt or debris will end up in the eyes of your dog, fear no more, because the doggles will help protect those soulful eyes that you love so much. And of course, they must be comfortable, because we wouldn’t want our loveable pooches to be uncomfortable. So how does Doggles insure their utmost comfort? Doggles feature the following:
Flexible snug-fitting frames
Foam padding for comfort
Shatterproof & anti-fog lenses
Deeper eye-cup to ensure your dogs eyes are safe whilst wearing Doggles
Adjustable elastic head and chin straps to keep Doggles secure

Goggles for dogs aren’t the only things that are made and sold by
Doggles. They have a complete line of apparel, collars, necklaces and health items. There are dog hats, dog art and even other dog comfort products. Check them out by clicking here.
