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. |
