Do you ever experience one of those moments when you feel like you've lived under a rock for a long time?
I've had one not long ago. What I'm about to tell you will not be any news to sports fanatics or anyone who practice any open air activity, but to the average Jane like me, this will probably be - and forgive me the pun - an eye opener!
I'm talking about polarized lenses. I never got a pair. Why, you ask?
Perhaps because there are some many gimmicks and words that are often used to "sell", to "make something trendy", and you but them and then you realize it was better if you kept your money in your wallet.
In my case I also am not a huge fan of sun glasses. I know people who have virtually a pair for every outfit, a friend of mine has as many pairs as she owns shoes!

My optician friends have been preaching to me on several occasion about getting polarized lenses, but did I listen? Nope.

A variety of inadequate reasons kept me distant from getting a pair of polarized lenses, until recently, when I had the opportunity to attend a clinic hosted by Zane Schweitzer the World Stand Up Paddle Boarding champion
(by the way check his website and Zane's world to find out the dooziest waves and water sports!).

If like me you've been living under a rock like I have, then you might not know that Maui Jim is the NUMBER ONE premium polarized sunglasses' maker in the world.
The brand has strived and continues to develop advanced technologies for double and single gradient lenses in plano and prescription.

What does that mean?
It means that when you wear a pair or Maui Jim sunglasses you've reduced by 100% the harmful UVA and UVB rays as well as cut glare from above, below and behind each lens by 99.9 percent.
Only Maui Jim uses up to nine layers of protection built into each lens, including the company’s proprietary polarized film, PolarizedPlus2®, that produces true, vivid colors.
In addition, Maui Jim lenses are waterproof and oleo-phobic, that means they not only repel water but grease too, so fingerprints and smudges are easier to wipe off, making them ideal for water or beach sports.

All Maui Jim sunglasses hold the Seal of Recommendation from The Skin Cancer Foundation as a primary tool of defense against damaging eye conditions and skin cancers of the eye.

Living in a city like Dubai where the glare and sun are so strong not only you are at risk of damaging your eyes but you are also missing out on amazing colors that your eyes don't show you, because they get blocked by the light and glare, so if you go to the beach or even to the park the colors you see are toned down from their real vivid hue.
These are the Maui Jim NALANI that I wear now and I can frankly say: I don't go out anywhere without them. Ever! Sunshine has now become a joy for me rather than the pain it was before.
By wearing a pair of Maui Jim you are enhancing your viewing experience,
and you are resting and protecting your eyes. I can easily say you will see the world as you never have before!
Did I mention they have beautiful and trendy styles? They do for men, women, unisex and sport designs.
Don't take my word for it, go to your optician and ask to try Maui Jim sunglasses: you'll fall in love with the world all over again!
