Polarized technology is always changing and is becoming more advanced as time goes on, but there’s a simple way to see if your sunglasses are polarized.

In the images below, we show you the difference between a polarized pair of sunglasses and a non- polarized.

Polarized:

Notice how the lenses become black out once they are tilted sideways? That is how you can tell if your sunglasses are polarized.


Non-polarized:

Notice how the lenses of these sunglasses don't become blacked out when tilted sideways? That means these sunglasses are not polarized and treated to reduce glare.

Here are a some benefits of polarized sunglasses:

Reduces Glare

When the sun reflects on to shiny surfaces we have the tendency to squint or look away- which can be dangerous in some situations (ie. driving a car in traffic). If you are on a fishing trip it is highly recommended to use polarized sunglasses so you can see through the reflection of the water. By reducing the glare that also reduces eyestrain and causes less redness, irritation and fatigue.

Better Vision

By wearing polarized sunglasses you can improve your vision by seeing seeing colors and images crisp and clear unlike wearing regular sunglasses.
