The Repel II sunglasses by Cancer Council are a sport-inspired design offering ultimate comfort and style. This slight wrap silhouette features a trendy clear frame contrasted with orange rubber temple tips and orange mirror lenses for an eye-catching look that won't go unnoticed. The orange mirror polarised lenses provide the most exceptional UV protection from harsh UV rays.

Ordinary sunglasses fail to block the UV rays from above and the glare from below, such as water, ice, or shiny surfaces. In contrast, Cancer Council sunglasses with polarised lenses effectively eliminate glare from these reflective surfaces, preventing potential vision obstruction. Particularly when driving, the glare from other vehicles can compromise your vision, making Cancer Council sunglasses crucial for maintaining clear visibility.
