Why They Matter for Your Eyes and Style
When it comes to sunglasses, most people focus on the look — the shape, color, and vibe. But what really makes a great pair of sunnies isn’t just how they look… it’s how they protect your eyes and enhance your vision.
At Gettuti, all our sunglasses feature UV400 protection and many include polarized lenses — two features that make a huge difference for your comfort, safety, and long-term eye health. Let’s break down what they mean and why you should never go without them.
What Is UV400 Protection?
UV400 is the highest level of protection your sunglasses can provide. It blocks 100% of ultraviolet (UV) rays, including both UVA and UVB radiation from the sun.
Here’s why it matters:
- UVA rays can cause long-term damage, such as premature aging around the eyes.
- UVB rays are stronger and can cause sunburn to your eyes and lead to conditions like cataracts or macular degeneration over time.
Even on cloudy days, UV rays still reach your eyes — so UV400 lenses are a must-have all year round.
In short: UV400 = full protection from both UVA + UVB rays.
What Are Polarized Lenses?
Polarized lenses go one step further. They have a special filter that reduces glare from reflective surfaces like water, sand, snow, or shiny pavement.
Think about driving on a sunny day, or dancing at a beach festival where light bounces off every surface — glare can make it hard to see clearly. Polarized lenses cut that glare, so you see everything with sharper contrast, better color, and less strain.
Benefits of Polarized Sunglasses:
✅ Reduce glare from water, glass, and roads.
✅ Improve color clarity and depth perception.
✅ Reduce eye fatigue during long exposure to bright light.
✅ Ideal for outdoor adventures, festivals, and beach days.
Polarized vs. Normal Sunglasses — What’s the Difference?
| Feature | Normal Sunglasses | Polarized Sunglasses |
|---|---|---|
| UV Protection | May or may not have UV400 protection. | Often combined with UV400 for full protection. |
| Glare Reduction | Reduces some brightness but not glare. | Eliminates glare from reflective surfaces. |
| Visual Comfort | Can still cause squinting and eye strain. | Clearer vision, more comfortable outdoors. |
| Ideal For | Short city walks or quick outings. | Driving, beach, festivals, outdoor sports, daily wear. |
💡 Tip: Always check for “UV400” and “Polarized” on your lenses — both matter. Stylish sunnies that lack real protection might look great, but they can actually do more harm than good by dilating your pupils and letting in more UV light.
