“It’s an honor to be associated with an organization that is making such a significant impact on the lives of those affected by melanoma. We are committed to helping the Melanoma Research Foundation raise awareness and drive research efforts. Our polarized lenses are not just about clarity and performance—they are an essential tool in protecting against harmful UV rays, which is something we take seriously.”
The sponsorship will not only help raise critical awareness of melanoma but will also support various MRF programs and resources that benefit patients, families, and the broader melanoma community.
