 Polarised fishing glasses are all about contrast. Smith Optics understand this and their glasses are regarded as the industry leader in fly-fishing optics. Their polarchromic glass lenses are the best in the industry and combined with their lifetime guarantee, these sunglasses are a must for any fly-fishing experience.
Sunglasses Technology
 POLARIZED LENSES WITH PHOTOCHROMIC TECHNOLOGY
With Smith Polarchromic we combine the glare-free benefits of advanced polarization with UV sensitive, self-tint-adjusting photochromic technology to bring you the most advanced sunglass lenses we have ever created. How do we do it? Precise amounts of silver halide crystals are infused into the glass lens material during their creation. These microscopic crystals automatically change orientation in response to UV light which results in a shift in tint either increasing or decreasing Visible Light Transmission (VLT), fine tuning the tint of your lens in response to ambient light conditions as they change throughout the day. Smith Polarchromic never wears out or gets tired lasting the life of the your sunglasses. The result? You get a lens which offers crisp optics and soothing light levels at all hours allowing you to focus on what matters most from dawn to dusk.
 PRECISION POLARIZATION ENGINEERED TO OBLITERATE GLARE
It's like noise-canceling headphones for your eyes. Glare off of horizontal surfaces like snow, water, and asphalt, decreases depth perception, reduces visual acuity, and causes eye fatigue. We precisely align the polarized visual layer inside our lenses to filter out 99.9% of this "visual static" for a finely tuned view of the action.
THE HIDDEN SCIENCE BEHIND THE BEST LENSES YOUR EYES WILL EVER KNOW
 The glare stopping benefits of polarization meet tint shifting photochromic magic in the most advanced lenses we have ever created. Versatile and comfortable, Smith Polarchromic lenses automatically darken or lighten as a response to the level of light you are exposed to.
These polarized, variable tint lenses darken on exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation. Once the UV is removed (for example by walking indoors or having the sun drop behind the tree line), the variable tint lenses will return to their lighter tint state.
 ADVANCED LENS BARRIER ENGINEERED TO NEVER STOP REPELLING CONTAMINANTS AND MOISTURE
Repels moisture, grease, and grime. A barrier between your lenses and the world. Water will bead up and disperse without streaking. Smudges from fingerprints are wiped clean easily.
 TAPERED LENS TECHNOLOGY
Visual distortion occurs when light waves hit an aggressively-curved lens causing it to bend or distort an objects true size or position. Imagine looking through a fish eye lens. What your eye normally sees, is stretched beyond reality. Get the picture? Tapered Lens Technology corrects the distortion by progressively tapering the lens from the optical center towards the outer edges. Light waves are thereby delivered straight to your eye resulting in zero distortion and true optical clarity. What you see is what you get.
