From the early Aviator style that emerged in 1937 to the introduction of the classic Wayfarer in 1952, Ray-Ban is a brand that embodies America and adventure, great cities and wide-open spaces, heroism, individuality, and authenticity. Starting with a silver screen debut in 1961, Ray-Ban sunglasses have appeared throughout hundreds of films and have been a favorite on the Hollywood scene for years, both on and off the screen.
With timeless and imaginative styles, Ray-Ban consistently blends high-tech design, lenses, and materials. The collection remains true to its classic heritage while continuously evolving to meet today's fashion demands.
Polarization:
For those who spend a lot of time on water or driving, polarized lenses provide another layer of clarity, as they reduce the glare coming from flat roads and smooth water. The special filter on polarized lenses blocks this intense, reflected light. Enjoy your outdoor activities more with polarized lenses.
Polycarbonate:
Thinner and lighter than traditional plastic, polycarbonate is also more impact-resistant than traditional plastic. Developed for aerospace applications, polycarbonate is currently used in astronauts' helmet visors and space shuttle windshields. The properties of polycarbonate make these types of glasses ideal for your outdoor activities.
Sunglass Ultraviolet Protection:
In the United States, the amount of ultraviolet (UV) radiation reaching the ground is calculated from 290 to 400 nm in wavelength (representing the full spectrum of UV wavelengths). Sunglasses that offer UV absorption up to 400 nanometer (nm), block at least 99% of UV rays. These are sometimes listed as 400 UV sunglasses.
