When we wear sunglasses it’s with the
expectation that it will defuse light entering our
eyes as well as block out harmful UV rays which is
why sun glasses were invented in the first place.
Did you know however that there are so many other
features that can be included in a pair of
sun-glasses? For example, polarized sun glasses have
become an extremely popular if not a necessary
feature to have when buying designer eyewear.
The main purpose of polarized
sunglasses is to block out horizontally polarized
light reflected from smooth surfaces like flat
roads, water and snow. This light is blocked by
vertically oriented polarizers in the glasses lens,
reducing annoying and dangerous glare from our
sight. These types of sunglasses are extremely
popular for sport fishing, aviators, golf and
skiing. You can even buy photochromic shades,
polarized prescription sunglasses and reading
bifocals for those who need vision correction.
Some popular name brands who have a
polarized glasses collection include Oakley, Bolle,
Ray Ban, Maui Jim, Spy, Smith, Revo, Gucci, Nike,
Arnette, Serengeti, Vuarnet, Polo, Native Hexx,
Hobie, Ralph Lauren, Electric, Killer Loop, Prada,
Dragon, Armani, Christian Dior and Persol to mention
a few.
My
favorite pair of polarizing sunglasses are
Oakley polarized radar path
glasses. They are very comfortable, stylish, very
durable and look cool no matter what activities I’m
doing outdoors. The cost is aprox. $255 which in my
opinion, is worth every penny.
The internet is a great resource to
find more sun protection information as well as
details on the best selling polarized designer
eyewear in addition to finding the cheap discount
sunglass merchants.
Another good idea is to read an
online consumer review and compare pro VS con
ratings guide, to see the difference between man and
woman sunglasses. In addition you can buy sun-glass
accessories like clip on polarized lenses, cases and
straps at almost wholesale prices with the right
sunglasses dealer or you may even be lucky enough to
find a clearance sale or two.
