Polaroid Sunglasses

All people look forward to the summer months, when the sun begins to warm especially warmly. However, together with heat, it poses a hazard in the form of ultraviolet radiation. Therefore, with prolonged exposure to the sun in summer, the skin should be lubricated with protective creams, and the eyes should be protected with glasses from the sun.

Among the many existing manufacturers of sunglasses, the most advantageous is Polaroid, which offers its customers the highest quality products at fairly reasonable prices. Polaroid sunglasses are the best way to protect your eyes from the sun's rays while also being a stylish accessory for any look.

The unprecedented success of the company was achieved thanks to its talented founder and inventor Edwin Herbert Land, who received as many as 535 patents in his life, and the first was received in 1929.

Through research work, Land managed to create the world's first polarizing material, which was named Polaroid. This material has the ability to prevent light from passing through, which forms glare, and to dim light that is too bright for the human eye. It is thanks to the use of this material in various devices and glasses that the company has become and remains popular and loved by many customers for more than 70 years.

In 1934, Kodak acquired the right to use the patented technology. After receiving a decent amount from a buyer, Land invested in the development of his own Polaroid corporation and increased his staff. In 1937, the first Polaroid sunglasses using a polarizing filter were sold, giving rise to the famous corporation.

It is the peculiarities of the production of the lenses that the sunglasses are equipped with that provide maximum protection from sunlight and glare.The company uses cast butyrate to create the lenses. Moreover, each lens has several functional layers.

Since its inception, the company has released several types of lenses that improve visibility or correct vision. All of them are still used today in various collections of sunglasses.

The company does not stand still, and in 2006 introduced a completely new PTX4000 lens. Today it is manufactured at the Polaroid plant in Scotland and is considered the best polarizing lens in the world.

The lens is based on a polarizing filter, which has 2 polymer layers on one side and the other. The first is designed to protect against damage, the second blocks ultraviolet rays of types A, B and C. The absorbers of harmful rays, in turn, are equipped with buffer layers to protect against mechanical damage. At the end, the lens surface is treated in a special way to protect it from impacts and scratches.

Other users of the products of this brand note with chagrin that the lenses of the glasses are easily mechanically affected and are covered with scratches even after wiping.

In order not to get into such a situation and not upset yourself with a low-quality purchase, you should find out how you can distinguish a branded item from an analogue.

1. The first thing to look for when verifying the authenticity of a product is the temples. On the original models, there are nine squares on the right temple and the company name is the Polaroid logo. Glasses that were manufactured after 2011 also have a three-digit code with information about the production date. The presence of any other information about the country of manufacture or model indicates that this is a copy.
2. The left temple of branded models has information about the model number and a mark that the product is certified. Also in this place is the filter category number from 1 to 4. Models from a limited edition, which were made in Italy, may be marked with this information. There should be nothing else on the left arch.
3. The temples of the original glasses are tightly attached to the frame. They should not open under their own weight, and there should be no gap between the bow and the frame.
4. Metal frames should have a perfectly even shape and uniform color. Plastic frames should also be free from flaws. Any unevenness or uneven paint coverage is a sign of a poor quality product.
5. Original models come with a lens polarization test. In addition, a branded booklet with information about the product in Russian is attached to the glasses.

It's no secret that any item, even of a very high quality, needs proper care. Therefore, with careful handling of the Polaroid accessory, it will serve its owner for more than one year.

• For storing glasses, especially with plastic lenses, you should select a case with a fabric cover on the inside. The case itself must be strong enough to avoid accidentally crushing the glasses.

• Many accessories come with a special lens wipe. If there is none, then a piece of cotton will do.In no case should you wipe the lenses with a regular napkin or suede cloth, as they can damage the top layer of the lenses.
• If the accessory is heavily soiled, then it is permissible to wash it with soapy water or a special care product for optical instruments.
• Place glasses on any surface only with the lenses facing up, so as not to damage or scratch them.
