Description
Rafa Polarized sunglasses have lenses that are designed to reduce glare from surfaces such as water, snow, and roads. Here’s how they work and their benefits:
How Rafa Polarized Lenses Work:
- Light waves vibrate in all directions. When light reflects off a flat surface, it tends to vibrate more in a horizontal direction, which we perceive as glare.
- Polarized lenses contain a special filter, often made of a chemical film, with vertically aligned molecules.
- This vertical orientation of the filter blocks most of the horizontally vibrating light (glare) while allowing vertically vibrating light to pass through.
- Think of it like a Venetian blind: horizontal slats block horizontal light, allowing you to see through the vertical openings.
Benefits of Rafa Polarized Sunglasses:
- Reduced Glare: The primary benefit is a significant reduction in glare from reflective surfaces, leading to more comfortable vision.
- Improved Clarity: By filtering out glare, polarized lenses can enhance visual clarity and contrast, making objects appear sharper.
- Reduced Eye Strain: Less glare means your eyes don’t have to work as hard, reducing eye fatigue and strain, especially in bright conditions.
- Enhanced Color Perception: Some users report that polarized lenses can make colors appear more vivid.
- Better Vision in Water: They are particularly useful for seeing below the surface of the water, which is beneficial for fishing and boating.
- Safer Driving: By reducing glare from car hoods, wet roads, and other vehicles, they can improve driving safety during the day.
