What are polarised lenses?

Polarised lenses block UV light, just like regular sun lenses.
But what makes them different is their in-built filter called a polariser.
The polariser diminishes reflected glare from reflective surfaces such as water, snow, buildings or cars.
By blocking glare, polarised lenses reduce eye-strain giving you smoother, more consistent vision in varying sunlight.
Polarised lenses are popular for long term visual tasks such as driving, fishing or skiing.
At Banton Frameworks, you can choose between prescription or non-prescription lenses in brown, grey or green tints.
