Benefits of Polarized Glasses

The Benefits of Polarized Glasses

If you wear eyeglasses, you should consider getting a pair of prescription sunglasses as well. Not only will you be able to see clearly while wearing them, but they are also very stylish. If you live in Bellevue, Kirkland, or one of the surrounding communities, visit Overlake EyeCare for prescription sunglasses with polarized lenses. There are several benefits that you can get from polarized lenses that you can't get from a traditional tinted lens.

Clearer Vision

When it is especially bright outside, it can be difficult to see clearly with traditional sunglass lenses. Polarized lenses provide clearer vision than a traditional lens, even when it is bright outside.

Reduced Glare

Glare is a common problem when you are out in the bright sunshine. The same is true with reflection. Polarized glasses can greatly reduce glare and reflection, making it easier to see outdoors on a sunny day.

Reduced Color Distortion

Traditional sunglass lenses can cause colors to look different and distorted. Polarized lenses are designed to reduce the color distortion, allowing you to see things as they are.

Enhanced Contrast

When you are wearing traditional tinted sunglasses, it can be difficult to distinguish an object with the background when the sun is bright. It can also be difficult to detect the difference between similar objects. Polarized sunglasses reduce these issues, allowing you to see better when you are outside.

Reduced Eye Strain

While traditional tinted sunglasses can help block the light from your eyes, they won't help with the eyestrain that often occurs when you are out in the sun. Polarized sunglasses are designed to reduce eye strain.
