I can't permit to buy, say, Tom Ford glasses. So, I can only choose between brands like MEXX, ZARA, Calvin Klein, etc. They are as I assume a low- or middle-end segment, when it comes to sunglasses.

Can anyone list here your personal gradation list of sunglasses brands that reflects different segments from low-end to high-end?

Now I don't have any idea about what brand I should stick to. I'd like to know what brands are considered best in the low and middle price segment accordingly.

Get a pair of Ray Bans and make sure they are polarized. Non-polarized sunglasses are sort of pointless.

The UV factor is more important to me. Anyway, I don't know any Ray Ban stores in my neck of the woods.

You've answered your own question no? No Ray Ban stocked stores means you're middle of nowhere.

Pick the style you like and hopefully you won't get headaches or eye problems

No, there are tons of stores selling different sunglasses here. The thing is I have not ever seen the mono-brand store selling Ray-Ban solely.
