Polarized Sunglasses

FAQ

How can I tell if my sunglasses are polarized?

The simplest way to test if your sunglasses are polarized is by doing the computer screen test. Most computer screens use the same anti-glare protection as polarized sunglasses. Take your sunglasses and rotate them to a 60 degree angle in front of a computer screen. If the lenses get darker as you rotate them, your sunglasses are polarized.

What are the benefits of polarized sunglasses?

Polarized sunglasses minimize the amount of reflective light that reaches your retina. Additionally, polarized lenses reduce glare, improve image sharpness and clarity and reduce eye fatigue caused by prolonged exposure to bright sunlight.

What is the difference between polarized and tinted sunglasses?

The main difference between tinted and polarized sunglasses is that tinted lenses don't offer the anti-glare protection polarized lenses do. Tinted lenses reduce the intensity of light that reaches the eye, but they do not eliminate glare.
