What are the Differences Between Non-Polarized, Polarized, and Elite Polarized Lenses?Updated 2 months ago

Revant lenses are organized in three types that cover just about everything in sight.

Non-Polarized Lenses

Our standard lenses are non-polarized designed for the ins and outs of daily life, keeping your eyes comfortably shaded and protected from UV.

Polarized Lenses

Our polarized lenses enhance your vision significantly by eliminating glare, increasing contrast and color perception. Great for water activities and driving.

Elite Polarized Lenses

Our Elite polarized provides the best optical experience. They are designed with specialized protective anti-reflective coatings that reduce distracting glare and reflections, and water resistant coatings that help keep lenses cleaner and lasting longer.

The Differences Between Our Lens Types

All of Our Lenses Have These Standard Features

100% UV Protection

Our lenses feature integrated UV protection that keeps your eyes safe from 100% of UVA, UVB and UVC rays.

Impact Resistant

All of our lenses meet the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) Z80.3 impact resistance standard.

Optically Corrected

Instead of being bent to shape, these sunglass lenses are injection-molded and tapered to the correct optical curvature to reduce distortion and give sharper vision than a standard lens.

Optical Polycarbonate

Polycarbonate is a high-quality lens material that is both strong and exceptionally clear.
