Mirrored Sunglasses

Mirrored Sunglasses: The Best for This Year!

Mirrored sunglasses are characterized by not allowing the wearer's eyes to be seen. They contain a reflective coating on the outside of the glass or lens. This means that sunlight or artificial light bounces directly off the glass, allowing the wearer to see just like other types of glasses. This helps reduce the glare and intensity of sunlight and provides clear, sharp vision.

It's a technology widely used in sports sunglasses for cycling, running, skiing, or mountain sports. Find models with UV 400 category 3 protection in our store.

How does the mirror effect work?

This type of lens uses, in addition to tinting, an optical layer or coating that reduces the amount of light that enters. Like polarized or tinted models, they offer excellent eye protection, preventing eye strain in bright conditions. But how do they work? The lens is made up of several reflective coatings on the back plus the classic sunglasses tint. This reduces light transmission by up to 60%.

Why choose mirrored sunglasses for your everyday life?

This type of lens first appeared in the 1940s. However, its popularity expanded through sports in the 1970s. Here are the most important advantages:

• It fits with multiple looks: We've talked about their use in outdoor sports, but the truth is that they are extremely versatile. For example, in round sunglasses or aviator sunglasses. Wear them with your most bohemian or rocker version.
• Brightness Reduction: The coating on the lens blocks the passage of light, reducing strain and fatigue on our eyes. This is essential for reducing fatigue.
• Glare Protection: In some situations, such as driving or sailing, glare can compromise safety.
• Wide Range of Colors: The options available to you are endless. Blue, green, yellow, etc.
• High-Quality Materials: With polycarbonate lenses, improving the strength and durability of the glasses. The frame is made from TR90, making the glasses much lighter for your ears and nose.
• Unisex style.
• More privacy: They're the perfect solution for going unnoticed. With this type of lenses, others won't be able to see your eyes, and you'll have the privacy you're looking for.
  

Differences between mirrored and polarized lenses

While polarized lenses eliminate glare from the sun, mirrored lenses contain additional layers with this characteristic effect. Mirrored and polarized sunglasses are two popular options for protecting your eyes from the sun, but what are the differences between them?:

Polarized sunglasses stand out for their ability to eliminate annoying sun glare. These lenses are coated with a special layer that filters horizontally polarized light, thereby reducing reflections that occur on surfaces such as water, snow, or pavement. This provides clearer, glare-free vision, improving clarity and contrast.

On the other hand, mirrored sunglasses feature a reflective coating on the outer surface of the lenses. This coating gives them that characteristic mirror effect, creating a striking and attractive look. Although they do not offer the same glare-filtering capabilities as polarized lenses, mirrored lenses do provide additional protection against bright light and UV rays.

It is important to note that sunglasses with mirrored lenses do not automatically block glare like polarized lenses do. However, the reflective coating on mirrored lenses can reduce surface reflections to some extent, which can be improved in certain situations.
