On a sunny day, they are indispensable; we are talking about polarization sunglasses, also known as polarized sunglasses. When the sun shines on the water and the surface reflects the light, you are quickly dazzled. Not only can you hardly see anything, but the intense radiation can seriously damage your eyes. Polarized glasses protect you from harmful UV radiation and allow you to see under the surface of the water.
Just like normal sunglasses, polarized glasses protect the eye from dangerous UV radiation and darken it. However, the special feature of these glasses is in the detail. They have integrated filters that block the light that is reflected by the water. This not only protects your eyes, but also significantly improves your view of and into the water. In ideal conditions, you can even look under the surface of the water.
Polarized glasses are a must for spinning anglers and fly fishers. Thanks to the filter function, you always have a good view of the fishing and whether a fish is nearby. But it is also worth buying polarized glasses for all other types of fishing, as you can see where the fish are in the clear water and adjust your casting direction accordingly. The cleaner the water, the deeper you can see accordingly.
The glasses fit close to the face and have extra padding around the edge. Brown lenses are ideal in fine weather as they filter out bright light. Yellow lenses provide more contrast in poor visibility. Grey lenses are suitable for all weather conditions.
Make sure that the polarized glasses offer at least UV-400 protection. However, this alone is usually not enough. Ideally, there should be an additional UV categorization, ranging from category zero to four. Four offers UV protection of over 90%, which means that this proportion of UV light is successfully filtered out and does not reach your eyes.
