pailod polarized lenses block out virtually 100% of glare.
What causes glare?
Glare is concentrated light reflecting off a horizontal shiny surface, such as sand, water, snow or roads. It reduces visibility and makes it uncomfortable, painful and dangerous to carry on driving, cycling, skiing or just sunbathing.
How do pailod polarized sunglasses help?
Not all sunglasses do help. Some just make things look darker. But pailod polarized sunglasses block virtually all glare. Light is made up of waves travelling in different directions. Vertical light is useful to the human eye; it helps us see. Horizontal light, however, simply creates glare. The vertically-aligned polarizing layer inside every Polaroid lens does not allow horizontal light to pass through.With Polaroid's unsurpassable anti-glare properties, you can wear pailod lenses all day every day and enjoy whatever you're doing in safety and comfort. Test pailod polarized sunglasses to experience perfect vision.
POLARIZED LENSES FOR SAFER DRIVING

Driving is safer with polarized lenses that block glare. When drivers can see clearly, they react more quickly to everyday driving hazards. Wearing non-polarized sunglasses makes glare a potential hazard and driving less safe.
Independent tests prove they work
Independent researchers investigated reaction times and stopping distances for drivers wearing ordinary sunglasses, polarized sunglasses and a control group wearing no sunglasses at all. A 12,000 watt lamp simulated the sun's glare. Drivers travelled at constant 50kms per hour towards the 'sun'. A hazard - a baby's pram - was pushed into the driver's path. Each driver applied the brake at the point they could see the hazard.
With ordinary non-polarized sunglasses drivers took the longest time to react, with a dangerously long brake-path distance before their vehicle stopped. Drivers wearing polarized sunglasses react up to 40% more quickly with shorter, safer stopping distances than those wearing non-polarized sunglasses.
