polarized sunglasses

Anti-glare eye shields

Polarized sunglasses have lenses that filter out light waves vibrating in certain directions, reducing glare from reflective surfaces like water, snow, or roads.

The polarizing filter blocks horizontally oriented light, which is what causes most glare: I can finally see beneath the surface with these polarized sunglasses.

Popular with fishermen, drivers, and skiers.
