Polarised vs Non-Polarised Sunglasses: Which Should You Choose?
Polarised Lenses
Pros: Eliminate glare from reflective surfaces (water, snow, roads). Reduce eye strain. Ideal for driving, water sports, skiing.
Cons: Can make LCD screens difficult to read. Slightly more expensive.
Non-Polarised Lenses
Pros: Better for reading screens. Often available in more tint options. Slightly less expensive.
Cons: No glare reduction.
Verdict
For everyday use and driving: choose polarised. For fashion and screen use: non-polarised is fine.
