As mentioned in an article by the American Academy of Ophthalmology, the beauty of the sun can be quickly forgotten when you are temporarily blinded by its glare. Normally, light scatters because it bounces at varying angles off an object’s uneven surface. But if the surface is smooth, as with calm water, road or a flat piece of sheet metal, light reflects at one angle — such as right in your eyes. This is what we know as glare.

Glare greatly hinders your visual clarity. It is distracting and can potentially even be dangerous. especially when you're driving. Polrized glasses help reduce this glare to improve visual clarity and vision saftey by blocking some of the light passing through the lens.

While Polarization solves a maojrity of the problem, it still lives the problem of glare on the back of the lens. The hitting you from the back can cause distracting reflections on the back of the lenses. Anti-Reflection coating, also know as AR coating helps reduce that reflection dramatically to give you a smooth, uninterrupted view.

There are three different kinds of lens materials. TAC, CR39, and Glass. CR39 and Glass lenses are the primary lens materials of choice in high end eyewear that promise ultra-clear visual clarity. CR39 and Glass are both unique in their own way and have different methods of polarization. With CR39, the polarization film is sandwiched in between to pairs of lenses, where as with Glass the film is applied on top.
