What is polarized
light?
Light is emitted in waves by the sun, or by
artificial sources like a bulb. These waves vibrate and travel in all
directions from the source. When light encounters an object, it can
reflect and enter the eyes. This light is focused onto the retina and
sent to the brain where vision occurs.
Often, light reflects back
to our eyes from shiny surfaces such as roads or buildings, car hoods,
sand, and water. When this happens, the reflected light waves now travel
in a single horizontal plane and with high intensity.
This
"flattened" light is known as "polarized light". When light bounces off
a shiny surface, it can become polarized and enter the eye causing
blinding glare.
There’s more to sunglasses than looking cool!
•
UV exposure may lead to premature macular degeneration
• Of the 20
million people with cataracts, an estimated 20% may be due to UVA
exposure |
 |
Unlike regular sunglasses, Xperio Polarized lenses
virtually eliminate glare, allowing you to see more clearly and
comfortably outdoors.
Safety
Xperio lenses
eliminate dangerous glare - even dashboard glare - for greater driving
safety. A recent clinical study measured driver reaction times for
Xperio polarized lenses versus ordinary tints and found that driver
reaction times were improved by 1/3 of a second. For a car traveling 50
mph, 1/3 of a second allows a driver to stop a vehicle 23 feet sooner.
That’s the length of an intersection and could mean the difference
between being in an accident or avoiding one.
Beauty
Xperio lenses let you see even the smallest things with greater clarity,
truer color perception and total comfort. Clinical studies show that
Xperio polarized lenses improve contrast sensitivity by 75%, allowing
you to experience the outdoors with increased clarity of vision versus
ordinary tints. This enables Xperio lenses to allow you to see truer
color outdoors. |
