Although it may seem a bit odd to choose sunglasses for an everyday, mundane task such as driving. We spend a great amount of time driving when running errands, going to and from work, work trips and the list goes on. There are still many drivers who don’t know that some glasses are unsuitable to wear behind the wheels. What a shame it would if you <\/span>buy a car<\/span><\/a> in Dubai and not buy the right pair of sunglasses to go with it? Here are a few tips for you to choose the right sunglasses for driving.<\/span><\/p>\n

1. <\/span>Frame style:<\/b> While celebrities may grace the cover of vogue wearing oversized glasses, wearing them behind the wheels can be quite dangerous. When choosing glass frames, make sure that they don\u2019t compromise your peripheral vision. Wearing oversized sunnies can sometimes significantly amp up the risk of car accidents. <\/span><\/p>\n

2. <\/span>Tint color:<\/b> We know that blue and green lenses are all the rage. But choosing the right lens colour is also crucial. Lens of different colours can affect how well a person sees various colours, how much light is able to reach your eyes and the degree of visual contrast experienced as a result. The best lens colours for driving sunglasses are grey and brown because they are neutral coloured and don\u2019t change the lens colours when worn.<\/span><\/p>\n

3. Polarised lenses: <\/b>Another important factor when looking for driving glasses is polarized lenses. Polarized lenses reduce glare and improve vision. They are also good for driving in foggy conditions and hazy weather.<\/span><\/p>\n

4. Lens coating:<\/b> Lens are highly polished to ensure a smooth surface but if they are not anti-reflective, they can only reflect 10% of the light hitting them. This is a problem for the drivers since less light reaches the eyes, reducing visibility. Anti-reflective and anti-scratch are recommended since scratches can interfere with vision.<\/span><\/p>\n

5. Tint density:<\/b> Tint density is one of the most important factors in determining how much light reaches your eyes. Clear lenses allow 80-100% of the light through their lenses while the darkest only allow between 3-8%. For driving sunglasses, the recommended light transmission range is between 18-43%.<\/span><\/p>\n

So, our verdict boils down to this: choosing the right sunglasses for driving involves taking care of a few technicalities. A pair of good sunglasses is a must have for driving.
