    Perhaps, but it's not relevant in this circumstance. I have some glasses that are not polarized, and I don't know if they have UV coating. I'd like them to for protection of my eyes. I don't know how...

    Is there a way to tell if a pair of sunglasses has a UV coating on it?

    I returned my transitions lenses

    I hated the Transitions lenses. They never got completely clear so I always looked tired, and they never got dark enough. They hardly get dark at all in warm weather, which makes them particularly...
