3. Author concludes people should wear higher priced brands - but there is no evidence that those glasses also actually protect it. A brand like So-Low may be priced higher. Also, there is no evidence that wearing no glasses would be better than wearing So-Low glasses.
1. -- yes, argument says that the study suggests that so-low glasses may be harmful which may be author's misinterpretation of the study. Good point.

2 -- to attack the argument, we should probably support So-Low brand, not further disparage it. So don't see how this is helpful.

3 -- good point. higher price is no guarantee of better protection.

Thanks ruchia.
