Does anyone know if the sunglasses that come with the board block UVA /UVB rays, or are they just for fashion?

I'm not sure if they block anything....they are really just for fashion. But the board is AWESOME!

I'm sorry to say that I have no idea. I have many pairs of glasses and all offer protection from UV rays.

Yes it has UV protection! It blocks out more sun than it looks like it would! I absolutely love this cover!!Don't know the weight but it's not really heavy! We covered our percula with it! Love it!

I just received a pair today and used a color spectrum test image (and I'd tried others as well). Here's a link to it if you're interested. https://www.paleohacks.com/sleep/will-plain-red-or-orange-lenses-block-blue-light-for-sleep-17104 These were the only glasses that showed true blue blocking. I'm thrilled as I spend way too many hours under fluorescent lighting and in front of a computer screen. At my my age I couldn't care less whether they're stylish or not. I do like the S1933X though, better for comfort... lightweight.

I bought them to block out blue light from my computer and e-reader. They aren't tinted so I wouldn't recommend them as sunglasses.

I just received my order. Right on the side of the box for Model DPG28 it has a label that says: "99.9% UVA-UVB Protection."Can we please just retain what we "think" and only share what we know? I was wondering this same thing before I ordered, and the comment below almost caused me to not purchase them. Then I figured that it would almost be impossible to have darkened lenses that don't offer any such protection, so I looked it up online and found a vague answer saying that they did offer some kind of protection. Very pleasantly surprised to see that they offer such thorough protection! I just received my order.

No, but all of the lenses block 99% of UV light, and the dark ones do help with reducing glare. I am actually using them as sunglasses.

its harmful ultraviolet rays - same as when you purchase sunglasses with ua protection

They are pretty much cool sunglasses indeed. You could wear them with an outfit they're pretty cool.... but you know what the real purpose is.

Yes! I wear sunglasses all the time with mine. They don't interfere even when I push the sunglasses up on my head and back down. NO problem!!

The ones we had were sufficient for blocking out the sun. And worked as I had hoped. If it is not clinging, be sure you remove the protective film! I took them on and off as needed.

I wear sunglasses and I haven't had a problem. These are some of the best for running. But I wear thin framed sunglasses. I do not wear glasses for vision.

I did a lot of research before buying these and I was told they do not. The package says nothing about UV protection. I am 99% positive that they are only to protect the eyes from flying darts.

No they dont. I put them on when facing the sun and it's like not wearing glasses at all. These don't offer protection from sun just from computers.

Thank you Andi, That is an awesome question and I do happen to have the answer. The Cling SunShades (48920) block98% UVA/UBA rays. (This goes for the Safety 1st and Eddie Bauer versions.) If I can help in any other way, please let me know.

We now have a product called "Ray Bloc for Clothing". It is intended to protect the SKIN by blocking UV penetration through treated clothing and outside lab testing has shown it added up to 30+ UPF to treated fabrics. Our existing Ray Bloc is intended to prevent fabric from fading and is used on indoor furniture and outdoor fabrics

You would have to ask the manufacturer. They claim to block the UV rays but I am no expert and certainly not the right person to answer this for you. I would hope that they were not falsely advertising that feature, but I am going to assume at the very least that they help regardless.
