Facts About Driving Lens Sunglasses

• When purchasing driving glasses, drivers must choose between a basic pair of driving sunglasses or a pair of prescription driving glasses, as necessary. Sunglasses specifically designed for driving are made with polarized lenses, which are what reduces the glare of the sun and makes it easier for the driver to see on a particularly sunny day. Driving sunglasses are also tinted, which increases the contrast of the driver's vision.
  
  

Prescription Driving Glasses

• When a driver purchases prescription driving glasses, they receive an appropriate distance prescription tailored to their specific needs. Prescription driving glasses also include anti-reflective coating on the glasses' lenses. The coating allows the driver to get more light into their eye, making nighttime driving easier and safer. The anti-reflective coating lessens the glare of the sun on both the back and the front of the lenses.
  
  

Drivewear Lenses

• Drivewear sunglasses have the ability to detect and react to various lighting conditions outside and inside a car. These glasses allow the driver better vision in outside and low light conditions, as well as normal driving conditions such as daylight driving. The driver's vision is enhanced through photochromics. Responding to visible light as well as UV light, photochromics helps protect the driver's vision. Photochromics is what allows the lenses to change color when exposed to light.
