Apr 16, 2023 · Polarized sunglasses are designed specifically to reduce glare so that you can see clearly in situations where you might otherwise squint or be blinded by reflected light. Glare is caused when light hits a reflective horizontal surface, causing light beams to be scattered horizontally.

Light travels from one place to another as a wave. In some ways, it is like a wave on a lake. Light travels out in all directions from a source, much like a water wave travels away from a rock dropped into water. In a wave on a lake, the water moves up and down while the wave travels across the surface perpendicular2to the motion of the water. A li...
To understand polarisation, picture a wave on a rope. If you make a series of up and down motions while holding onto a rope, a series of waves will move from your hand along the rope, transferring the motion down the rope. The rope moves up and down while the wave (and its energy) travels along the rope perpendicular to the motion of your hand. You...
One method of polarisation is by the use of a special polarising filter or lens. To understand how a polarising lens works, let’s go back to our rope example. If you make vertical waves on a rope that go through a vertical slit, shown as in figure A in the image below, the waves would travel through the slit easily because the orientation of the sl...
You can find examples of polarised light3in many places. When light is reflected off a surface at a steep angle, such as sunlight off the surface of water or an automobile windscreen, it becomes polarised. The glare from such reflections is greatly reduced by polarised lenses in sunglasses. The glasses worn by the audience in modern 3D films are po...
At Disney World, Universal Studios and other 3-D venues, the preferred method uses polarized lenses because they allow color viewing. Two synchronized projectors project two respective views onto the screen, each with a different polarization. The glasses allow only one of the images into each eye because they contain lenses with different ...

Whether the light is transmitted, reflected, scattered or refracted, when its vibrations are aligned into one or more planes of direction, the light is said to be polarized. Polarization can occur either naturally or artificially.
