Who wears polarized sunglasses?
Polarized sunglasses are a great choice for anyone who spends their time outdoors. If you are outside for sports or activities like driving, hiking, fishing, or at the beach, especially where there are lots of glares and reflections, polarized sunglasses will reduce glares and minimize reflections while keeping your eyes protected. Just like going out to the beach you usually put on sunscreen to protect your skin, you will need a pair of sunglasses to protect your eyes.
Benefits of wearing polarized sunglasses
- Reduce reflection and glares to improve overall visibility
- Enhance contrast and color perception

How to tell if the sunglasses are polarized
If you are unsure if your sunglasses are polarized:
Using your computer screen (most computer screens have the same anti-glare technology as polarized sunglasses)
- Open to a white screen, the brightness will be optimal for testing.
- Face the sunglasses towards the screen and tilt it 60 to 90 degrees
- If the lens becomes dark then the sunglasses are polarized
