POLARIZED-PHOTOCHROMIC LENSES — ELIMINATE REFLECTED GLARE + LIGHTEN & DARKEN AUTOMATICALLY TO SUIT THE LIGHT CONDITIONS
It’s a Polarized lens so it eliminates glare. It’s also a Photochromic lens, meaning it lightens and darkens automatically to suit the light conditions. These two lens technologies offer the greatest advantages, so we’ve packed them into one. Our Polarized lenses are made using an injection process that ensures they’re optically correct, decreasing eye fatigue and increasing comfort. As with all of our lenses, RYDERS Polarized lenses provide protection against 100% UVA, UVB, UVC and harmful blue light to 400nm.  |

When exposed to sunlight, the lenses will start to darken instantly. The time they take to reach maximum darkness depends on a number of factors including the intensity of sunlight and air temperature. Generally speaking, the adjustment from light to dark is quite rapid. If sunlight intensity gradually changes, the lenses will gradually change with it. If the intensity suddenly drops off, the lenses will start to change instantly but the adjustment from dark to light is slightly slower than the rapid adjustment from light to dark. |

POLAR-PHOTO LENSES ARE IDEAL FOR
· activities where light conditions are likely to change · potentially glaring conditions · those who prefer to have one pair of glasses that can handle many different light conditions |

BENEFITS OVER NON-POLAR-PHOTO LENSES
· keep your eyes protected, even when conditions get dark · no squinting from glare or light that’s too bright, and no straining to see through lenses that are too dark · details that may have otherwise been hidden by glare are now visible · you’ll forget you’re wearing them because they’re always the right tint |

POLYCARBONATE LENS MATERIAL
Polycarbonate is the extraordinarily durable thermoplastic that’s used in bulletproof glass, riot shields and astronaut helmets. It’s the ideal material for performance eyewear because of its high impact resistance, inherent UV protection and light weight. All of our lenses are made of polycarbonate. |

UV PROTECTION
All of our lenses block 100% of UVA, UVB, and UVC rays, and harmful blue light to 400nm. These harmful rays are a leading cause of cataracts, skin cancer and wrinkles around the eyes—all great reasons to block them out. |

|
|
SHATTERPROOF
All of our lenses are shatterproof, meaning they won’t break up into dangerous little shards when impacted. An extremely strong impact may damage the lens, but it will never shatter. If astronauts trust this material to keep their heads from exploding while on a 17,000 mph space walk, you’ll have nothing to worry about on your adventures, no matter how fast you’re going. |

OPTICALLY CORRECT
The lenses in all of our sunglasses are made by injecting the molten polycarbonate into a mold that is specially shaped to eliminate distortion. This process makes the lenses optically correct and increases comfort by minimizing eye fatigue. |

*Most car windshields block UV light which is needed for the Photochromic chemical reaction to take place. For this reason, you should not expect the tint of the lenses to darken while driving in bright conditions.
