Sailing Sunglasses Allow Better Vision On The Water
Sailing Sunglasses are not only useful for eye protection but also as a fashion accessory.<<>>
They were invented in China and used to camouflage expressions from others.The sailing industry held the way in sporting eyewear. Other outdoor activities picked up on the benefits of wearing them after sailing. Nowadays the same is true for reflective glasses.
They allow the wearer clearer vision, whilst shielding the eyes from glare off the water.
The polarizers offer a filter from the UV waves which are reflected off the water.

The materials used are important. Thin frames and weak component parts are not going to stand the rigors of being on board.

Spinnaker work on fore deck probably isn't the place to wear your $800 Armani's. Fortunately the shatter resistant qualities of polycarbonate allow for some give. Polycarbonate is not bullet proof, but will stand up to day to day boat life.
Caring for your sunnies is important. Use the container provided when not wearing them. It is designed to protect. Don't stuff them in to a pocket as grit and grime may scratch the surfaces - which will be obvious each time you wear them afterwards.
Also you need to clean off sweat and dust which accumulates on the lenses. This ensures you can see clearly when you put them on. The longer sweat and grime stays on the lenses - the more difficult it is to remove.
