Why Consider Polarised Lenses?

Polarised Sunglasses optimise visual clarity, improve colour contrast and block out 100% of UV rays. Polarised lenses are coated with thin vertical stripes that stop horizontal light waves from entering your eyes. This means that the blinding glare from light bouncing off surfaces such as roads, windscreens, water and snow, is blocked from reaching your eyes.

The benefits of polarised lenses

Many people who have tried polarised sunglasses find that you may never go back to standard sunglasses. Polarised lenses contain a unique filter that blocks horizontally reflected light rays. This significantly reduces glare by only allowing the vertical light rays to pass through the lens.

Polarised Sports Sunglasses

Polarised sunglasses can significantly enhance sporting performances, a benefit particularly noticeable in activities like fishing. The polarised lenses help achieve clearer vision by reducing glare from water surfaces, which is crucial for anglers. This improved clarity allows for better perception of the underwater environment and quicker reactions, both essential for successful fishing.

Polarised Sunglasses For Driving

Polarised sunglasses can be useful for driving as they minimise the glare roads can reflect. It will also give you enhanced visual clarity and help with reduced eye fatigue which leads to an overall safer driving experience.

What's The Difference Between Standard and Polarised Lenses?

While polarised sunglasses are a premium choice compared to standard lenses, their unique advantage lies in their advanced glare reduction technology. Equipped with vertical 'polarizers', these lenses effectively block horizontal light rays, significantly minimizing glare. This feature not only enhances visual comfort but also improves clarity, making them an ideal choice for activities where glare reduction is essential.

Glare can hit your eyes from the road, the bonnet, windscreen of a car, water surfaces and any other horizontal plane the sun can reflect off. The difference between the two lenses is very apparent when you hold them next to one another.

Although a standard sunglasses will protect your eyes from UV rays, it will not reduce the glare. This can be extremely dangerous when driving in conditions where glare occurs. However, with polarised lenses, glare is reduced immediately. This allows visual clarity alongside clearly distinguishing the difference between lines and textures.
