Polarized Yellow
|
 |
Provides excellent depth
perception and dramatic contrast
low light conditions such as first and last light or heavily
overcast days. Improves contrast and gives a sensation of
heightened visual acuity in low light conditions. Excellent
stream fishing glasses. It is like turning a color TV into
a Black & White television. |
Polarized Copper
 |
A general purpose tint that
heightens depth perception
and object definition. It is a very high contrast lens that is
soothing to the eyes. It absorbs blue light, heightening
visual acuity and boosting contrast. |
Polarized Brown
|
 |
Increases contrast,
providing greater depth perception in situations
where visual acuity over long distances is required, like tennis,
golf,
shooting, or any other outdoor sports activities that are subject to
varying
light conditions. Polarized Amber polarized lenses are ideal for
lower light
situations, like fishing in the late afternoon or early morning.
|
Polarized Gray
|
 |
Maintains True color
definition regardless of varying light. Transmitting all
colors equally, Polarized Gray lenses are ideal for driving or any
general
purpose outdoor activity where annoying glare is present. Polarized
Gray
polarized lenses are ideal for those who are light sensitive or
migraine sufferers. |
The
Traditional Lens (Grey)
These lenses allow in 87% of visible light. Gray lenses transmit light evenly
allowing the wearer to see colors as they naturally occur. All of our Polaroid
lenses are made of optical grade
polycarbonate polarized lenses with a 7 layer back side anti reflective coating
to reduce back side glare.
All Polaroid sunglasses block 100% of harmful ultraviolet light.
The Brown Lens
(Including the
above features) These Brown Polarized lenses allow in 78% of visible light.
The Brown Lens is designed to block a high percentage of blue light. Blue light
is at the dark end of the visible light
spectrum and is the most difficult light to focus, especially as the eye ages.
These lenses improve contrast by
accentuating the brighter colors.
Lens Materials & Optics - All of
our Polaroid lenses are made of optical grade polycarbonate polarized
lenses with a 7 layer back side anti reflective coating to reduce back side
glare.
WHAT ARE
POLARIZED LENSES? Glare
is everywhere and is due to the reflection of light on smooth surfaces.
It gets worse when the surface is shiny. That’s the case with water, snow and
even certain roads or buildings.
When driving, glare can be dangerous, blurring your perception and causing
visual discomfort and eye fatigue.
These polarized lenses eliminate 99% of horizontal glare and block 100% of
harmful UV rays.
WHY ARE POLARIZED
LENSES A BETTER CHOICE THAN STANDARD TINTED LENSES?Tinted
sunlenses
reduce the amount of light and darken your vision, but do not address the glare
problem and don’t necessarily
block 100% UVA and UVB radiation. These polarized lenses allow optimum light
levels in for maximum comfort,
clarity and more accurate color perception. They also eliminate headaches and
fatigue caused by eyestrain.
WHAT LENS COLOR
IS THE BEST CHOICE FOR ME?
Gray lenses are the most
color-neutral. They transmit
colors evenly and are comfortable in bright, medium and intermittent light.
Brown lenses are becoming
increasingly popular, especially among women. Brown lenses enhance color
contrast
and preserve depth perception for activities such as driving, fishing, winter
sports and golf.
Mirror coated lenses offer
increased light absorption in the bright sun, as will as fashion forward
appearance.
SAFER DRIVING
VISION Polarized
polycarbonate lenses eliminate direct and reflective glare and can withstand
the impact of deployed airbag.
GREATER COMFORT
OUTDOORS Polarized
polycarbonate lenses reduce the intensity of sunlight to more
comfortable levels, thus helping to prevent eyestrain, fatigue and headaches
caused by glare.
SUPERIOR EYE
PROTECTION FOR SPORT Polarized
polycarbonate lenses are 10 times more impact resistant
than other lenses.
MORE COLOR
OPTIONS Gray:
All-purpose, true color vision. Gray is best for the intense glare and bright
sunlight
encountered when driving, boating or deep-water fishing.
Brown: For improved contrast
in bright conditions such as driving, golf, winter sports, and shallow water
fishing.
MORE COMFORTABLE
TO WEAR Lightweight
polarized polycarbonate lenses reduce pressure on the wearer’s
face and stay comfortably in place.
HOW POLARIZATION
WORKS
As light waves travel away
from their source, they vibrate in all directions equally.
This is similar to the way motion waves roll down a whip. But rather than the
wave traveling on a flat plane it travels in
all directions. When reflected off a flat, shiny surface, the light waves
become polarized and align in a side-to side,
horizontal direction.
The result is blinding glare.
Polarized lenses are like a
fence when the whip is fed between the slats of a fence. Only the up and down
waves
can get through. The side-to-side waves would be blocked. A polarized filter
blocks reflected glare in the same way.
The horizontal waves are blocked.
