Polarized gascan are eye accessories made of special polarized lenses. Aside from minimizing, if not totally eliminating the unwanted effects of glare, it also provides added protection to the eyes. What makes these sunglasses special and different from traditional non polarized sunglasses is the way they treat and filter light.
These glasses use Plutonite lens, which is a special kind of polycarbonate lens. The lens is designed to block all UV rays and is also described as the lightest material available for use in lenses. This has low thermal conductivity that makes them slow to heat up. Therefore it less likely to produce fog, making it ideal for eye wear.
The visible light is composed of waves that travel in different directions. Vertical light is what helps us see the objects on the surroundings while horizontal light creates glare. Glare is cause by concentrated light that is reflected by a shiny horizontal surface. More often than not, glare can vision difficulties.
Standard lenses just filters light waves indiscriminately, whether horizontal or vertical. This merely minimizes glare, not completely get rid of it. However, visual acuity is also sacrificed since vertical lights are also filtered.
On the other hand, Plutonite lenses uses a special kind of filter. They let the vertical light to pass through the lens, which gives the user a clearer vision. Furthermore, the horizontal component of light is totally eliminated which makes it pretty effective in eliminating glare.
Since the flat and shiny water surface can add to the glare, people who are involved with water sports are best advised to use these accessories for best performance. The water surface polarizes the light waves partially through horizontal reflection. With these eye wear, glare is eliminated while the water appears to be more transparent allowing clearer view of what is below the surface. Aside from that, because of the XYZ Optics technology that helps maintain clarity of sight at any angle, the peripheral view is not sacrificed.
Notwithstanding, there are conditions when these sunglasses are not very helpful at all. To easily spot and identify patches of ice, skiing on ice relies on the amount of visible glare. Ice are known to create more glare compared to the snow. As such, wearing these accessories make it hard to locate the patches which could be dangerous when skiing.
Viewing LCD is also affected when using these lenses. Hence they are not preferred for activities which involves the use of LCD display screen like pilots and boaters who rely on instruments that uses the LCD technology. Some manufacturers have fixed this issue but many still have to get this fixed.
Different manufacturers use different technologies to achieve polarized lenses. As for the polarized gascan sunglasses, it uses the liquid infusion process to bond the filter at molecular level. To achieve the design, two lenses are cut from one lens shield that has a special curve and are then mounted to a special frame which follows the original and continuous contour. The frame is also made lightweight and stress resistant. The impact tests also shows that it conforms to the ANSI Z87.1 standards that gives an assurance for added protection for the user.
