Once considered a specialty lens that was geared for activities such as fishing, boating, and other water and snow sports, polarized lenses are now the preferred choice by the patient as well as by the ophthalmic professional as the leading lens for sunglasses.
Polarized lenses are made from a particular polarizing film that is applied in the factory on the front surface of the lens. This film allows light rays to be filtered, consequently improving the vision in strong light conditions. Polarized lenses will protect you from UV rays, glare and intense light. In combination with a reflection-free coating, polarized lenses are ideal for fishing and driving.
Polarized lenses provide much sharper vision
as compared to the equivalent tinted lenses.
These lenses also block 100% of UVA & UVB.
Polarized lenses help eliminate light reflections originating from horizontal surfaces like water or asphalt. Polarized lenses are made of a particular material that filters and blocks out one of the two planes of light that creates blinding glare. Polarized lenses also provide increased contrast.
Reasons to get polarized lenses:
» To minimize early morning or late afternoon distractions when glare is maximized
» Activity in sports or outdoor activities, both as a spectator and participant
» If you find yourself using your hand or squinting into the sun light or if you experience eye strain or fatigue after a long day in the sun

VARIABILITY BRINGS THE BENEFITS OF POLARIZATION TO EVERYDAY SITUATIONS
Did you know that bright sunlight can cause glare when light scatters off reflective surfaces, which causes discomfort and dull, washed-out images? Polarization filters this light, so you get better clarity.
Polarization is not limited to sunglasses, which are popular with drivers and boaters for dealing with the harsh glare off the road or the water. However, glare isn’t limited to extreme situations. It’s also present in our everyday lives. Now you can get the benefits of polarization in an everyday lens. Transitions Vantage lenses are virtually clear indoors. Outdoors they increase polarization as they darken. This means that you can get crisper, sharper vision in the dappled light of a tree-lined sidewalk or the full glare of a city street.
