Style and Protection- Polarised Sunglasses

Sunglasses are a pair of accessories that were designed for the sole purpose of protecting the eyes from the ultraviolet rays of the sun. However, since the 1940s, they are being used as fashion accessories. Hence, there are different types of sunglasses that are being designed to suit to the requirements and aesthetics of different people.

Of late, Polarised sunglasses have gained immense popularity over other types of glares. Polarized glares are made from polarized lenses that were first invented by Edwin H. Land in 1936.  The Iris is that part of the human eye which is naturally enabled to block excess light from penetrating into the eyes. However, at times with the bright gleaming rays of the sun, the iris can become non- functional. Polarized sunglasses are specifically designed to absorb the reflection of sun rays from such flat surfaces like water and snow. They have a capacity to absorb 97% of reflection. These are specifically meant for skiers, scuba divers, fisherman and other professional marine navigators in order to ensure crystal clear vision even under water or high up in the sky.

These glasses can also be used during the night while driving as they can effectively absorb a lot of the light that is reflected from the headlight of the car and thus facilitate in driving without straining the eyes. Individuals suffering from different kinds of eye- disorders like presbyopia and hypermetropia are also being recommended to use these glasses for added protection to the eyes. Doctors also prescribe polarized sunglasses for patients post eye surgery and post cataract operations as these ensure protection against blinding light. 

However, these days sunglasses are not simply about protection. A right pair of elegant sunglasses can add to your style quotient and polarized sunglasses are a perfect choice because while they ensure protection to your eyes, they simultaneously also enhance your elegant outlook.

Another type of sunglasses that is increasingly becoming popular is the tattoo sunglasses. These days’ tattoos are in fashion and most young people prefer to get tattoos engraved on their bodies. A tattoo reflects ones taste, style and personality. Capitalizing on the popularity of tattoos, companies designing sunglasses have launched their own line of sunglasses with tattoos engraved on them. Tattoo sunglasses are specifically designed for people who want their glares to symbolize their style and personality. Tattoo sunglasses have more of aesthetic importance than functional importance.

These days’, eye- wear manufacturing companies have also launched their lines of polarized tattoo sunglasses. Protection combined with style. Could there be a better combination?
