Polaroid Sunglasses - Great Sunglasses from Doctor Land!
Looking back to the birth of Polaroid sunglasses, one must look back almost 100 years ago. Dr Edwin Land invented the world’s first man made polarizer in the early 1900’s as a result of experimenting with filtering light and kaleidoscopes. The first pair of Polaroid sunglasses was sold in 1935 and the Polaroid Corporation was launched in 1937.
Polaroid polarized lenses block the UV light and the glare so you can see better. Polaroid is clearly the leader in polarized lens technology, blocking 100% of glare, and surpassing all safety standards for blocking UVA, UVB and UBC rays. Glare is light which bounces off a reflective surface and can make it very hard to see as well as hurt your eyes. Glare can also distort colors and vision. Regular sunglasses simply make the world around you darker, but do nothing for glare. Polaroid polarized sunglasses cancel out the glare, making driving safer, and hanging out at the beach or on the slopes more comfortable. UV rays are harmful to our eyes as well as our skin, and spending time in the sun without protecting your eyes can lead to cataracts, and skin cancer on eyelids and around the eyes. Polaroid sunglasses offer complete protection from these harmful rays .
