THE countdown to summer is on, and there’s one thing you need the most – a quality pair of sunglasses from Torquay Eyecare.<\/p>\n

To celebrate the change of seasons, Times News Group is giving one lucky family or group of friends on the Bellarine the chance to win a pair of prescription sunglasses from Torquay Eyecare.<\/p>\n

Bellarine Times readers can jump online to register to be in the running to win.<\/p>\n

To gain extra entries to the “Shades for Days” competition, they can head in-store to Torquay Eyecare and scan the QR code to register.<\/p>\n

On December 1, one family or group of friends will be crowned with their package of up to five pairs of sunglasses and be all set for summer.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Based in the Torquay Medical Hub at 1 Cylinders Drive, Torquay Eyecare is the town’s newest optical practice.<\/p>\n

With cutting-edge technology, top-tier eye care services, an extensive range of stylish frames, and the biggest Australian range of Smith Optics products in one location, the locally-owned business and its locally-based staff offer personalised solutions for all your vision needs.<\/p>\n

Stocked brands include Smith Optics, Isabel Marant, Carolina Herrera, Kate Spade New York, Eyewear by David Beckham, Carrera, Under Armour, BOSS Missoni, Rag & Bone, Havaiana, Polaroid, Jimmy Choo, Fossil, and Love Moschino.<\/p>\n

Torquay Eyecare’s Martin Duke said the eye care services at Torquay Eyecare included VR technology for tracking eye movement and making multi-focal glasses.<\/p>\n

Sunglasses are a must during summer, and Mr Duke said polarised sunglasses were very hard to scratch and also cut out reflective glare.<\/p>\n

“Sunglasses are also going to help people with avoiding cataracts, injuries to their eyes, and skin cancers.”<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Smith Optics range at Torquay Eyecare includes high-performance specialised lenses for snowsports, biking and other outdoor pursuits.<\/p>\n

“Pretty much all of our sunglasses can be made with prescriptions, so if the person wears a prescription and likes the sunglasses frame, we can put the lenses into that and match it up,” Mr Duke said.<\/p>\n

Torquay Eyecare also has a prescription insert for glasses that can be worn under goggles for mountain biking, skiing and snowboarding.<\/p>\n
