Choose from direct glaze models such as the RX-TAC 3 and Manteray where the prescription lens is glazed into the frame, and the RX-2, which has an Rx insert lens and is suitable for higher prescriptions.
Several of the models of eyewear featured here are versatile for use with a wide range of sporting and leisure applications, due to their interchangeable lens feature.
Why polarized lenses are important for sailing
Surface glare from reflected sunlight off the water is a serious problem for sailors. When normal, parallel rays of light bounce off flat surfaces like water or the deck housing, they create random light waves. These reflected light waves produce glare that irritates your eyes and distort your vision.
The answer is a polarized lens. This is scientifically engineered to filter out extreme glare and reflections, enhancing visual acuity. They work like microscopic venetian blinds, organizing the light, eliminating glare and reducing eye fatigue. In fact, polarized lenses can reduce glare by up to 99.97%.
All the models of eyewear featured here have high performance, polycarbonate polarized lenses that also provide 100% UV protection from harmful sun’s rays.
