Polarized Sunglasses Lenses

Reviewed by : Dr. Matthew Miller, OD on May 19th, 2022

Standard sunglasses are great for reducing overall brightness, but they don’t do much for glare — those annoying, vision-blocking bursts of light. Polarized sunglasses stop glare from reaching your eyes.

How Do Polarized Lenses Work?

They feature a special coating that makes them block horizontally polarized light. They shield your eyes from annoying glares while letting non-polarized light through. This provides better visual acuity compared to standard tinted sunglasses.

FAQ

How do polarized lenses differ from regular sunglasses lenses?

Unlike regular sunglasses, which mainly block light, polarized lenses feature a special coating that filters out horizontal light, reducing glare. This improves visual acuity and makes polarized lenses ideal for outdoor activities like driving, fishing, or any situation with reflective surfaces.
