Why buy polarized glasses?

Polarized sunglasses are sunglasses whose lenses have a polarizing filter that suppresses parasitic reflections of sunlight on a flat surface: road, water, snow, etc.

What are polarised sunglasses?

How do I know if sunglasses have polarized lenses?

To determine whether a pair of sunglasses sold on Visionet features polarized lenses, kindly consult the product description. If the sunglasses are equipped with polarized lenses, the term "polarized" will be explicitly stated in the product description for the lenses. Conversely, if the term "polarized" is not mentioned, the lenses are not polarized.

For those specifically seeking polarized sunglasses, we recommend utilizing our dedicated filter located in the "Options" section for a streamlined browsing experience

Here is a link to browse all our polarized sunglasses : Polarized sunglasses
(you will be able to add additional filters such as gender, size, colours etc.)

Why wear sunglasses with polarized lenses?

What's more unpleasant and embarrassing than being dazzled when you wear your sunglasses? What's more disappointing than realizing that your new pair of sunglasses does not avoid being dazzled when you drive?

These two situations unfortunately happen frequently, even if it is abnormal when wearing sunglasses! That's why you have to choose glasses with polarizing filters for your sunglasses. Only polarized lenses will offer absolute comfort in vision, regardless of the situation.

  • The polarization of sunglass lenses, a short science course!

    Why are polarized lenses so different from other lenses? The answer lies in their creation: light propagates in the form of an electromagnetic wave, composed of an electric wave and a magnetic wave. If we only look at the electrical component, we notice that it propagates by vibrating horizontally or is "polarized" horizontally.

    Glare on a flat surface occurs when the reflected light waves vibrate horizontally, causing a portion of the light rays to reverberate.

    Polarized glasses lenses are equipped with a polarizing filter that blocks the phenomenon of reflection due to horizontal vibrations to let pass only vertically vibrating rays.

    Polarized sunglasses, what are the benefits?

    No doubt, polarized sunglasses are good for our vision:

    • Polarized lenses reduce eyestrain while protecting the eyes

    • The colors and contrasts reflect the reality

    • Visual acuity is intact

    • Viewing comfort is very appreciable

    Polarized glasses, for whom are they intended and at what times should they be worn?

    The benefits of polarized sunglasses are appreciated by all eyeglass wearers. Polarizing filters protect the eyes very effectively. However, given the nature of the benefit, some situations are more specific than others for wearing sunglasses with polarized lenses:

    • Activities on the water: polarized lenses are very useful to stay on course! (fishing party, boat trip, etc.).

    • Road presence: even pedestrians are concerned. On the road, polarized solar panels enhance safety.

    • Outdoor sports: In the mountains, polarized sunglasses avoid the glare generated by snowy surfaces that dazzle under the sun and protect the eyes.

    Polarized glasses emblazoned with the biggest brands of fashion, each one a unique style!

    Leading fashion brands have designed high-quality polarized glasses. These sunglasses are indispensable complements to every outfit or situation. Maui Jim has developed a particularly powerful polarizing lens, which it declines in several colors and that it is destined to the terrestrial or marine sport rather than to mountain sport.

    Ray ban displays his iconic airmen models and is competing on this model and others with Marc Jacobs and Michael Kors. These three brands present a very harmonious choice of metal and acetate frame assemblies in classic matte black or glossy black colors and gray or gradient glasses in brighter colors.

    The price of all these pairs of brand polarized glasses remains very affordable and even more if they enjoy a promo period. This price allows you to bring you a model of high-performance solar glasses equipped with a polarizing filter.
