Lens Options For Motorcycle Riding Glasses

When riding a motorcycle, it’s important to wear the best eyewear to keep you safe on the road. When choosing motorcycle riding glasses there’s various options including frame shape, lens color and frame type. There’s also different types of lenses that you can choose from and the kind you select can make a big difference in your vision. Below you’ll learn about the various types of prescription lenses for sunglasses.

Polarized

When beams of bright sunlight reach a flat surface it causes a glare when it shines into your eyes. This not only makes it hard for you to see when riding your motorcycle, but it also affects your depth perception. Polarized sunglasses have a special coating on the lenses that helps to cut the glare from the sun so it doesn’t briefly blind you while driving.

Mirrored

You may think that mirrored sunglasses are all about looking cool, but there’s a purpose to this type of lens other than the style factor. Mirrored lenses prevent excess sunlight from shining into your eyes by reflecting the light. This type of lens will help your vision immensely when you’re riding your motorcycle on days when the sun is extremely bright. Mirrored lenses are available in various colors including silver, pink and blue.

Gradient

This type of lens is a popular choice for motorcycle riders because it helps to lessen bright sunlight that can impair your vision while driving. These sunglasses have a gradual dark to light tint on the lenses. The darkest tint is at the top of the glasses and the bottom portion of the lenses have the lightest tint. The darker tint keeps the bright sunlight above from obstructing your vision. The lighter tint lets more light into the lenses to help you see the road.

Browse the large selection of sunglasses that include polarized, mirrored and gradient lens styles. By choosing the best lens type that suits your needs, you’ll be safe out on the road.
