Default Avalon 7534 Sunglasses are A Medical Device

Yes, it's true. Avalon 7534 sunglasses are considered medical devices by the US FDA, the Food and Drug Administration. Domestic manufacturers and importers of sunglasses must register with the FDA, and are subject to numerous reporting requirements and good manufacturing practice inspections. The lenses must be impact resistant (not shatterproof) and the frames must be non-flammable. (Wouldn't that be a drag if your sunglasses caught fire?) All sunglasses must be labeled with the name and address of the manufacturer or import-distributor and imported sunglasses must be marked with the country of origin.

How `bout that, huh?
