Polarised Sport Sunglasses

Sunglasses are an essential accessory for protecting our eyes from the harmful effects of the sun's UV rays. However, not all sunglasses are created equal, and choosing the right pair is crucial to maximise their effectiveness in different light conditions and activities.

We only ever stock Polarised Sunglasses here at OpenSeason.ie – for the simple reason that they are the single most effective way to cut glare, improve colour contrast and depth perception, and reduce eye-strain from squinting.  They work by blocking horizontally-polarised light, which is the main source of sun-glare and as such are ideal for outdoor sporting activities (fishing, hunting, boating, skiing), but also farming, golf, driving, etc.  You’ll see sunglasses for sale all over the place every summer – in our humble opinion, if the swing-tag doesn’t specify “polarised”, then don’t bother wasting your money! 

Believe it or not, the colour of your lenses is more than just a question of looks, fashion or personal taste.  Each colour works best in different light and weather conditions - check out our Blog "How to Choose The Right Sunglasses" for more information!
