Our " Optical manager" ( what ever that is ) doesn't seem to know the difference between a polarized lens and an AR coating. They are two different things with different purposes.



A polarized lens will eliminate glare from water, cars in front of you, all reflective surfaces, which is great, but that has nothing to do with backside reflections you get on a dark sunglass lens, polarized or not.



An AR coating is ALWAYS recommended on a sunglass lens on the inside ( backside ) . The fact it is polarized won't stop you seeing reflections of your own eye in the lens, but an AR coating will.



AR also has nothing to do with the UV protection , it is NOT part of an AR coating.



The lenses of Oakley's are polycarbonate and provide all the UV protection necessary by the nature of the material...not because they are polarized.



I don't know what color lenses you chose, but the darker they are, the more useful a backside AR coating will be.

I would say it isn't worth it. Polarised lenses are like an ultimate AR coating - they reducing all glare. They're so good at reducing glare that polarised sunglasses are banned at fishing tournaments, because you can see right through the sun shining off the water to catch the fish, which is a vast advantage.



Anti-reflective coating is composed of 3 elements. Anti-glare, UV protection, and hydrophobic coating. UV and anti-glare are both vastly superior in the polarised lens. The hydrophobic coating isn't covered by the polarised lens, but all this means is that your sunglasses are more susceptible to fogging and water marks. Honestly, fogging is only going to occur in the cold (not likely to happen when these are sunglasses, meant for sunny days), and water marks are virtually not a problem at all with glasses anyway - unless you went out in the rain and then just leave the glasses to dry themselves. You should wipe them with a glasses cloth or, failing that, a tissue - then the problem is instantly avoided.



I would say don't bother with the AR. I'm actually surprised they offered AR on a polarised lens. Maybe it's because you've already bought an Oakley frame, as well as a branded polarised lens, so they think you're fair game to squeeze some more money out of.

We've purchased from different shops in the past and the down below one is really the most popular. They own tons of unique jerseys as well as rare types that you just are unable to acquire from other retailers. The product quality and support is the best you could get online with this low price. With this dealer, I am certain you aren't going to let you or your customers down..

Direct sunlight is harmful for your eyes because of the UV rays emission. That is why we now see a lot of people wear these sunglasses while driving, and playing sports so that their eyes remain protected, and that the object in front can be seen without any glare.
