How to Polarized Lenses Work

If you enjoy spending time outside, then polarized lenses should be your first choice when choosing sun protection for your eyes.

Polarized lenses offer exceptional glare blocking protection whether you are on the golf course or the water. They also offer excellent glare protection while driving by adding an extra level of sun reflection behind the windshield.

People with light sensitivity, particularly in those who have had eye surgery for cataracts or macular degeneration also report experiencing added sun protection.

We are committed to helping our customers enjoy better vision. That’s why we offer a different polarized lens options and tints that will improve your visual experience while protecting your eyes from the sun’s harsh rays.

What Do Polarized Lenses Do?

When you think about spending time in the sun, you probably think of wearing traditional, dark sunglasses. Polarized sunglasses take sun protection to the next level, designed with special filters that eliminate or significantly reduce intense glare, reflecting it away from your eyes to minimize discomfort.

Polarized lenses also offer 100% UV protection, making them the perfect choice for those of you who spend a lot of time outside.

The benefits of polarized lenses are apparent from the outset for wearers. Though traditional sunglasses may help to provide UV protection from the sun’s rays, polarized lenses eliminate the horizontal glare that reflects off surfaces like water, car bonnets and roads into your eyes, allowing you to enjoy the outdoors as it should be.

Polarized lenses also provide high contrast for enhanced clarity of vision, making images appear sharper and better defined.

No matter what your visual needs are, these sunglass lenses can be easily adapted for you, suitable for the majority of prescriptions and available as a non-prescription option.
