When choosing sunglasses, the decision between polarized and non-polarized lenses is important. Both types offer distinct benefits. Here's a description of what each category offers as well as their differences.
Polarized sunglasses
Polarized sunglasses have a special filter that blocks horizontal light waves, reducing reflection from reflective surfaces such as water and roads.
Advantages
- Reduced glare: Ideal for driving, fishing and other activities involving reflective surfaces such as skiing.
- Visual comfort: They reduce eye strain and fatigue.
- Enhanced visual clarity: Improve contrast and sharpness in bright environments.
- UV protection: Protects the eyes from harmful UV rays.
Non-polarized sunglasses
Non-polarized sunglasses reduce overall brightness by blocking light waves equally, without specifically targeting glare.
When to Choose Polarized Sunglasses
Polarized lenses are best for reducing glare during:
- Driving: Improves safety by reducing road glare.
- Water Activities: Improves the visibility of boats and fishermen.
- Outdoor sports: Improves performance in bright, reflective environments.
When to choose non-polarized sunglasses
Non-polarized lenses, while offering less flexibility than polarized lenses, are preferable for general use and everyday activities.
Both polarized and non-polarized sunglasses have unique advantages. Polarized lenses reduce glare and enhance clarity, while non-polarized lenses offer flexible protection. Choose based on your lifestyle and activities, ensuring 100% UV protection for eye safety.
