As many have already said, Polarized sunglasses are important for reducing glare on shiny objects such as water ect. I think that they make the biggest difference when it comes to snow.
If you really want to check them out, i used to work at a sunglass store, so stop by a sunglass hut and ask. They should be able to show you the difference between polarized and non polarized, although it definatly limits the selection.
Check out the Oakley website as their polarized lenses are the best. They polarize their glasses on a molecular level so that the glare protection can’t be rubbed or worn off, since some "polarized" lenses are only polarized with a surface coat which is no good if you want it to last. Oakley also makes a wide range of sport and now fashion glasses. They also provide alot more info about polarization on their site.
No, all it does is reduce glare. Like sun shining off the car hood. In fact, on overcast days it does absolutely nothing because the sun creates no glare. But there is no tint at all in polarized lenses. Also, it have nothing to do with UV at all.
I agree they are great for being around water, because of glare. They can also make the sky look a bit deeper in color, from certain angles.
Polarized cuts out the glare. There are polarized for overcast days and sunny days (darker and lighter tints). Especially good for fishing, as you don’t have the glare of the sun on the water and can see the fish better.
Polarized lenses are used in sunglasses to reduce glare from reflective surfaces such as the surface of a lake or the hood of a car. They do this through a process called polarization, much like a venetian blind controls sunlight through a window. Regular sunglasses dont do this.

the polarized ones will block out harmful rays that are bad for your eyes. Don’t take chances.

Polarized glasses give you better inner eye protection. Dont wear anything else. They come in all darknesses. I wear mirrored.
