Look Great & Protect Your Eyes
Sunglasses are for more than looking great on a sunny day. They’re an essential tool for protecting your eyes from harmful ultraviolet rays that could damage your eyes. If your eyes are left unprotected, it could increase your risk of developing vision problems and eye diseases.
Polarized sunglasses go even further to protect your eyes by reducing glare and improving visual clarity. These added benefits can reduce eye strain and make it easier to adventure without worry. Visit us to discover polarized sunglasses and find your pair today.
Book AppointmentWhat Are Polarized Sunglasses?
Polarized sunglasses are distinct from regular tinted lenses because they account for how light travels in waves. When the sunlight bounces off surfaces like snow and water or refracts through glass, it vibrates horizontally. This horizontal vibration concentrates the light, hitting the eye directly and causing glare.
Polarized lenses are treated with a vertically-applied chemical that filters out horizontal light that causes glare. Without glare, you don’t have to strain your eyes so much to see clearly, reducing fatigue and headaches.
Book AppointmentWhy Are Polarized Lenses Useful?
In addition to more comfortable everyday vision, polarized lenses are helpful in different circumstances where you need to see clearly for safety or performance reasons. They’re a great tool to ensure you can enjoy your chosen activity without worrying about eye strain, headaches, or UV damage.
Fishing
Polarized sunglasses are ideal for fishing because they reduce glare and allow you to see under the water’s surface. By eliminating the distraction of sunlight, you can get a better sense of where the fish are to cast your rod to get the best catch.
Winter Sports
Winter activities like cross-country skiing, snowmobiling, winter hiking, and more are far more accessible and enjoyable with polarized sunglasses. By reducing the glare from sunlight bouncing off the snow, you can see clearly and go about your adventures safely.
Water Sports
Polarized sunglasses are an essential tool whether you’re boating, kayaking, or canoeing. By cutting through the glare off the water’s surface, you can see obstacles like rocks and cut an effective path through the water.
