Polaroid Lenses
An excellent sunglass lens that helps to eliminate much of the sun's glare.
UV Coating
A clear, ultraviolet coating that is applied to the lens that protects the eyes from the sun's harmful UV rays. Very important for the health of one's eyes.
Scratch Guard Coating
A coating placed on plastic lenses which makes them 20x more resistant to scratches.
