Extreme Glare vs. Polarized: No Contest

Wear only the best eye protection.

Polarized Lens Technology Concerns: Safety vs. Popularity

Authorities consider polarized sunglasses "unsafe" for flying, driving, boating, or operating vehicles.

The Federal Aviation Administration has ruled that polarized lenses are not to be worn in flight because they significantly interfere with the viewing of digital instruments and the ability to see through windshields. Why obscure, impair, or let anything interfere with your vision?

Compare the photos below and see the difference between polarized and Extreme Glare Sunglass lenses using a blinding

500 watt Halogen bulb.

Please Note:

You can zoom in on the light fixture, and clearly see/read the stamped printing on the back of the light shroud by the manufacturer.

Incredible Vision! Incredible clarity! Blinding glare solved with “Extreme Glare” Technology.

Seventy years ago, polarization was developed to reduce glare from reflective surfaces. Polarization did a good job until the arrival of the "Digital Age" . Now, it is difficult, even impossible to read smart phones, GPS units, digital gas pumps, chart plotters, fish finders

and other digital screens, or instruments. Polarization will probably be used less with the advent of more digital electronics, and devices.

"Extreme Glare" lens technology outperforms polarized lenses in most reflected light conditions. They provide a optically clear vision of digital instruments on boats and planes—not to mention car rear-view camera displays, and modern dashboard instrumentation.

Extreme Glare Sunglasses' lenses were originally created to block blinding glare in direct sunlight as well as all reflective surfaces. They provide welcome, and soothing relief, as well as comfort and eye protection.

Migraine headaches, medications, surgery, trauma, illnesses, diseases and a host of other medical conditions often result in eyes that are very sensitive to most light. Those with "photophobic" sensitive eyes will find these sunglasses invaluable as part of their daily wear and will no longer need to suffer in bright light.
