Frequently Asked Questions
What's the benefit of polarised sunglasses?
Polarised sunglasses reduce glare from reflective surfaces such as water, roads and metal. They work by filtering horizontal light waves, which often cause discomfort or reduced visibility in bright outdoor environments. This type of lens can improve clarity during activities like driving, boating and sports where glare is a common challenge. Polarisation does not darken the lens more than usual, but it changes how light is processed, helping reduce visual fatigue in strong sunlight.
Do sunglasses need UV protection?
UV protection is an important feature in sunglasses because it blocks ultraviolet rays that are present even on cloudy days. Lenses with full UV protection help reduce exposure to UV-A and UV-B rays, which can contribute to long-term changes in ocular structures. The level of UV filtering is determined by the lens material and coating rather than tint darkness, meaning even light-coloured lenses can offer complete protection. Checking that sunglasses meet recognised UV standards ensures appropriate coverage.
Can prescription lenses be added to sunglasses frames?
Many sunglasses frames can be fitted with prescription lenses, including polarised and tinted options. When adding prescriptions to sunglasses, measurements such as pupillary distance and lens positioning become especially important to ensure clarity across the full viewing area. Some high-curve or wrap-around frames require specialised surfacing techniques to maintain optical accuracy. This process allows users to combine visual correction with outdoor comfort in a single pair of glasses.
How We Tailor Sunglasses to You
When we help you select sunglasses we begin by discussing how and where you plan to use them, as different environments benefit from specific lens features.
We evaluate tint depth, colour and lens material to determine which combination offers the most practical support for your visual tasks. Polarised options may be recommended for reducing surface glare, while specialised tints can improve comfort in bright or variable light.
Frame selection also plays an important role, so we look at fit, coverage and comfort to ensure the sunglasses remain secure throughout daily activity. For prescription users we take additional measurements to align the lenses accurately within the chosen frame. This ensures the sunglasses provide consistent clarity while still accommodating the required level of correction. Throughout the process we explain how each component contributes to function and durability.
