What are men's polarised sunglasses and are they worth it?

Men’s polarised sunglasses block glare from reflective surfaces like roads, water, and snow. They improve clarity and reduce eye strain, making them ideal for driving, cycling, fishing, and water sports. Prescription polarised lenses are available at Direct Sight in grey, brown and green tints.

What lens tints are available for men's prescription sunglasses?

Men's prescription sunglasses at Direct Sight are available in grey, brown, and green. All three colours are available in standard tinted and polarised lenses.

Are men's tinted glasses the same as prescription sunglasses?

Yes. Men's tinted glasses with a prescription are prescription sunglasses. Any frame in the Direct Sight range can be fitted with tinted prescription lenses to your exact prescription. Choose the frame, select your tint and lens type (standard, polarised or photochromic) at checkout.

Can I get varifocal prescription sunglasses for men?

Yes. Varifocal prescription sunglasses for men are available at Direct Sight. All varifocal lenses are digital freeform, optimised to your individual prescription for a wider, more natural field of vision. Available with standard tinted, polarised and photochromic options.

What frame styles are best for men's prescription sunglasses?

The most popular men's prescription sunglass styles are wayfarers, aviators, square and rectangle frames.

Wayfarers and square frames work well on oval and round face shapes. Aviators suit most face shapes and are a strong choice for driving. Rectangle frames complement round and oval faces. Round frames work well for square or angular face shapes.

Are polarised lenses good for driving?

Men's polarised sunglasses are an excellent choice for driving in bright conditions, cutting glare from wet roads and other vehicles enhancing your vision. Note that some drivers find polarised lenses affect the visibility of digital dashboards or GPS screens. If this is a concern, grey standard tinted lenses are a practical alternative.
