While the Olympics aren’t all about prescription eyeglasses, some of our favorite olympians do wear glasses! Take a look at Daylon Robles of Cuba, for instance. He is almost never seen without glasses - even while he runs!

Not to mention, let’s face it, if these athletes aren’t wearing glasses, they’ll definitely be seen in some pretty sweet sunglasses during this bright and hot summer season! Of our favorite team - Team U.S.A., of course!! - Gabby Douglas can be seen sporting her hot and fresh sunnies here:



Her sunglasses style is so versatile and modern, chic - and boy does she look great! We’ve compiled some very similar looking sunglasses - that are available in eyeglasses as well! If you like Gabby’s style, take a look at these!!



If you’re looking for some shades that can compare to your favorite athletes from the 2012 Olympic Games, check out our prescription sunglasses section of the site; and remember, even if you find a pair that not in the sunglasses section, any and all pairs of eyeglasses frames on the site can be turned into shades by simply adding Color Tint!


Happy Shopping!
