As mentioned with running sunglasses, the human eye is not designed for lengthy periods of exposure to high speed wind. Therefore a good pair of cycling sunglasses are even more important. Your eyes will be exposed to high velocity wind and will therefore be badly affected without protection. They can become dry and sore as well as the fact that exposure to sunlight can cause permanent eye damage.
Many top sports brands have excellent eye protection and can therefore provide your eyes with the protection they deserve. Some popular brands for cycling glasses are Adidas, Bollé and Nike. Generally, cycling sunglasses have large wide lenses to protect from the elements and to also protect peripheral vision, especially from side winds and from head turning when racing.
