What Does the Term Polarized Sunglasses Mean?

Here at Peepers, we sell sunglasses for everyone. Check out our vast collection of stylish sunglasses for men and women, including polarized sunglasses and stylish reading sunglasses. If you would like to take a closer look, we can help you learn more about what it means to have polarized lenses so you can decide what types of eyeglasses are best for you.
What Are Polarized Lenses?
The American Academy of Ophthalmology says that polarized lenses are anti-glare lenses designed to reduce eyestrain and glare from the sun. These specialty lenses are intended to improve safety and enhance vision while you spend time outdoors. Polarized lenses may help to prevent temporary blindness or vision changes caused by glare and reflected light. They’re also designed to make you feel more comfortable while you relax or read outside.
How Do Polarized Sunglasses Work?
Polarized sunglasses feature polarized lenses with stylish frames. The filter ensures that the images you see are sharper and clearly visible.
Polarized sunglasses are perfect for wearing outdoors, especially on a sunny day with little cloud cover. They’re an ideal lens for boating or fishing due to the intense glare that can reflect off the water. Some golfers like to wear polarized lenses on fairways, but they’re an especially popular type of sunglasses for winter activities. You can even wear polarized sunglasses when you’re playing field sports.
