If you find yourself squinting in the noonday sun and suffering sensitivity to glare, polarized lenses are worth a look. Glare is produced when the sun reflects off of horizontal surfaces such as roadways or water. This reflected light hits the eye all at once rather than being spread out safely in a normal configuration. For this reason, drivers and boaters are especially susceptible to glare.

Polarized eyewear corrects the way light is distributed to the human eye. Polarized lenses contain a filter to block intense rays of light, making for a more enjoyable midday drive or early morning boat ride. It should be noted that polarized glasses, as with any eyewear, are not intended to protect you from looking directly at the sun. Rather, they are unparalleled tools for cutting down on indirect glare.
