Well done! As an airline pilot I learned that polarized lenses aren't approved for cockpit use, as you imply. Most cockpit windows and windshields are partially polarized during the curing process. Additionally, there's a list of sunglasses not approved for cockpit use since their color bias can obscure some flat screen indications. As you mentioned, polarized lenses are great for boating. Final take away from the aeromedical guys at ALPA (Airline Pilots' Association) is that cheap sunglasses can be worse than no sunglasses. Cheap glasses reduce the light and cause the pupil to dilate but they don't block harmful wavelengths, more harmful wavelengths strike the retina causing retinal damage and cataracts.

I prefer polarised sun glasses when I drive, because it cuts down the glare from the sun reflected from cars by eliminating or shrinking that glare, from a large spot to a small spot, making it easier to see. I learned more about the polarising filters with photography, where you get more clear, distinct colours when using these filters outside in bright sunlight. It does so by reducing the reflected light on subjects when photographing them. The polarising sun glasses do make it a little more difficult to read screens on my gps display. This is a very good explanation of how polarising works. Thanks!! (This program changes my Zs to Ss)

Great video on what polarization is. I would like to point out that I wear non-polarized, tinted sunglasses while I am driving because as regards to progressively darkening sunglasses, the filters that are built into car windows prevents the proper reaction of the glasses to the brightness. That is the only reason I wear tinted glasses rather than polarized in my car. However, using a polarizing filter on a camera is one of the most awe-inspiring things you can do. On a sunny day with white puffy clouds, polarizing filters will really increase the contrast in the clouds and darken the sky which makes for really really dramatic photographs. Finally, if you are taking photographs through a store window and there is glare on the window you can turn the polarizing filter on the camera until the glare is completely eliminated and all you see are the items beyond that window in the store. It’s almost like magic. Love your videos.

Very useful topic, trusting yourself and questioning everything is the very essence of being your own doctor, Thanks for being a mentor, i'm one of those who are very sensitive of light, due to suffering with keratoconjunctivitis for a long years.and i was not for Polarized glass, Now i know the difference.

A good pair of polarized sunglasses totally knocks out a Heads Up Display because they operate on reflected light and reflected light is polarized.

dr. allen, thanks for your sunglass videos. i am 47 and just had an eye exam. the doctor and his people were nice but advised me that it's in my best interest to start taking my eye health seriously. i work outside at a car plant moving cars for shipping. while i can read and see pretty good for my age, they did get me to buy near and far sighted glasses and showed me the difference between the eyeglasses and my current vision. so as part of taking my eye health seriously, i ended up buying a pair of william painter level-model sunglasses. they have polarized lenses. compared to the garbage at sunglass hut and the monopoly that essilor-luxottica exerts on the market, WP was not cheap but def provided much more bang for the buck. i spend a lot of time on the computer at home so i am getting blue blocker eye wear too. where you intertwine with this is that i watched quite a few of your videos, and i am thankful for the education you provided. fair, honest and objective. i will keep watching your videos so that i can learn more about eye health. cheers from southern ontario 🍁

When I’m on the highway driving and it’s day light out but raining polarized lenses help a ton.

Thank you for your fantastically simple to understand videos, I have just had surgery (detachment/cateract/Jag) for my right eye and now understand so much more about the options I have with lenses, which was not explained by the consultant or the optician. BTW I have allways had problems with bright lights (even more so since the surgery) so have started wearing polarised sunglasses. Great for driving etc BUT reading all the digital dials (inc the Head Up Display) in my BMW is now very hard! So I will have to think whether I compromise on being dazzled by the sunlight so I can see the readouts in the car.

This is a cool video!! My sunglasses are not polarized but I always like looking through my hubby’s polarized glasses when we’re fishing so I can see the fish better!

In the case of car HUDs, they often work by projecting the information from the top of the dash onto the windshield, which has an inner surface designed to reflect that projection back to the driver. Because it’s a reflection, it turns out to have the same orientation as the glare off of other cars and therefore will be blocked by polarized glasses. I don’t think the auto manufacturers have much choice over that (unlike computer screens). If they did the projection from a different angle, it would be tough making reflect back at the driver or preventing distortion.

Definitely makes sense now.

Funny story about polarized sunglasses. I bought a polarized face shield for my motorcycle helmet. First time I road I almost fell off the bike in amazement. The polarizing filter in my glasses interacted with that of the face shield. Reflections off of asphalt at certain angles and some car window tints gave me a rainbow color effect like what I've heard is experienced by some on LSD. Really wild.

Maui Jim - that's my chosen brand for many years now, the world looks amazing thru them. Colors are bumped up like some live photoshop effect and I believe they have their own polarized technology

There are two types of polarised filters. Linear and circular. The first one is older technology and required 2 lenses - you would turn them in different combination to receive required polarisation effect. The circular one is the type you had on the glasses you shown, yes by turning lens you can vary palarisation effect. I think circular technology is more practical, but linear gives you better control and stronger effect.

I like polarised lenses. I'm getting my first pair of prescription sunglasses in the next week or so and I paid an extra $100 (AU) to get them polarised. I've worn polarised non-prescription sunglasses for a while and love how it reduces the reflections if it has been raining and the road is kind of shiny.

That's unfortunate. It helps wonders for me to prevent migraines on very sunny days. But I've heard it makes people dizzy before, I've heard people describe it as a "3D feeling" which kind of makes sense since polarized glasses are used in 3D theatres, each eye having a different polarization (vertical vs horizontal) so each eye only sees one of the 2 images.

And interestingly, this is exactly how watching 3D movies at the cinema works (your demonstration with the polarised lens in front of the computer screen was great). Two images are projected, one polarised in one direction and the other polarised in the other direction. The lenses then each block out one image, the left lens blocks out what the right eye wants to see and vice versa, creating the illusion that you've viewing a three dimensional object with your eyes, giving depth perception to an otherwise 2D image.

I had some issues with my vision getting bleary while driving a few years ago. This did not happen when riding my bicycle. The difference I realized, was that my driving glasses were polarized but the cycling glasses were just tinted. I suspect the underlying issue was that I had crossed eyes that were corrected with surgery when I was about 21. I'm sure the correction was not complete, but close enough for my brain to compensate for the remaining difference. As I got older, polarizing filters became a problem for my eyes. Got rid of the polarized lenses and have just bought tinted since. Maybe you have some experience with this or maybe it is something new to you? I'd be interested in hearing an optometrist's take on my experience.

Polarized glasses will absorb about half of the light that passes through them if they have no tint. This is because they absorb the horizontal component while leaving the vertical undisturbed. Humans do not actually experience brightness at a 1:1 ratio; we perceive brightness in an exponential manner. So if something blocks 50% of light we perceive it as 70% dimmer approximately. So a polarized lens wont appear that dim at all compared to other glasses unless there is something else absorbing or reflecting the light before it reaches your eye light tint or a mirrored finish.

I cant find non-Polarized Sunglasses in most stores so get them through an online Aviation store.

Very well put! That is why I like randolph sunglasses so much, you can choose if you want polarized or not.

Polarized sunglasses really help to keep from distracted driving too, since it makes screens unreadable! Also, you're gorgeous. 🥺

Polarized for me. I want to know about optic neuritis and if there is a cure, what is it and how does one get it.

Optic neuritis can come from mulitple diseases/ conditions, Most commonly we associate it with Multiple Sclerosis. Optic neuritis is a type of swelling that huts the nerve and usually resolves on it's own, but unfortunately it can leave a person with permanent vision loss in some cases.

Two guys in the desert. Guy without polarized glasses: Hey I saw an oasis over there! Guy with polarized glasses: No.

super informative tenku!!

My dad (rest his soul) would always talk about how polarized sunglasses was the shizzle (he didn’t say that though, since he was an elderly gentleman, but you get the gist). He wouldn’t tilt his head but show me the glasses and tilt ’em and I didn’t see any difference and just thought he was ”special”… Man, do I regret that now! This is the best thing I've ever seen when it comes to sunglasses! Now I get it! It is a big bonus that your eyes are blue as the sky on a sunny day, and I am officially in love with Doctor Eye Health. I am subscribing now!
