Do Polarized Sunglasses Protect Your Eyes?
The ultraviolet rays that come from the sun are known to be incredibly damaging and can lead to glaucoma and a host of other eye and skin conditions. It is also important to keep in mind that the threat of ultraviolet light can still be substantial even when the sun is not shining as bright, making the precautions you take to protect your eyes all the more important.
This is how polarized sunglasses come into play.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF POLARIZED GLASSES?
Polarized lenses reduce the glare of light around you, whether it is coming directly from the sun, from the water or even snow. Your eyes need protection when you’re spending time outside. Typically, polarized lenses will also have built in UV protection which is extremely important in a pair of sunglasses.
- The first benefit of polarized lenses is that they provide clearer vision. The lenses are built to filter bright light. Without the glare, you will be able to see much clearer. In addition, the lenses will improve the contrast and visual clarity.
- Another benefit of polarized lenses is that they will reduce your eye strain while working outside. As mentioned before, they will minimize glare and reflection.
- Lastly, polarized lenses will allow for the true perception of colors that you may have not been getting with regular sunglass lenses.
