FAQ
When exploring the high mountains, harsh sunlight and solar radiation can be a dangerous and constant threat. The right sunglasses can help mitigate these risks and protect your eyes, ensuring safe and successful trips into the mountains.
All of Julbo's glacier sunglasses are equipped with removable side shields. Side shields aren't necessary, but they do provide an additional layer of protection from the increased glare encountered in the high mountains.
Polarization operates on the same principle as Venetian blinds, filtering light along a single axis. In sunglasses, the pattern of polarization filters light traveling along a horizontal axis, providing the most effective protection from the surface glare off snow. This helps ease eye strain during long days outside and increases visual contrast, comfort, and clarity.
Julbo’s polarizing treatment comes in two forms: a thin chemical laminate that’s applied to the surface of the lens and a unique chemical laminate that’s sandwiched between two lens materials.
Exposure to solar radiation increases significantly in the mountains.In addition, the snow reflects between 80 and 90 percent of solar radiation compared with 20 percent on non-snowy ground. Glacier glasses are equipped with lenses that will only let through 3 to 8 percent of visible light. Providing superior protection form solar radiation and glare. In addition to protecting your eyes against harmful sunlight, and glare that glacier sunglasses defend against the wind, cold, and snow. Julbo's Glacier
