Going Polarized for Sun Season

While non-polarized sunglasses do offer some protection, they do not address the glare factor that can lead to dangerous situations when driving, eye strain on a bright day, and don’t hold up with the sun reflecting off of snow or water.

The benefits of having a pair of polarized lenses include:


✅ Safer driving from less glare
✅ Less eye strain symptoms in bright sunlight
✅ Great protection (with Phoenix® or a polycarbonate material)
✅ Reduced glare and better visibility below the surface of the water
when out on the lake.
✅ Less glare and strain when skiing or traveling in the snow.
✅ 100% UV protection
