Tinted eyewear came into style a long time ago, but with the variety of options available today, they probably won't be going anywhere soon. Tints serve more than just a decorative purpose, they have been found to have some very specific functions. Here are a selection of tint types and their special functions.
Rose: enhances contrast; increases visibility in low light conditions
Yellow: increases visibility and depth perception; great for cloudy weather
Orange: enhances contrast in low light or cloudy weather
Brown: improves the quality of light and adds depth perception
Blue: reduces glare while increasing contrast
Amber: enhances contrast and offers more vision clarity
Green: minimizes color distortion
Grey: reduce brightness and glare
Polarized: filters glare, deepens perception, offers more vision clarity
Mirrored: reduces glare without interfering with contrast
Tinted lens may improve clarity needed for high-performance activities such as biking or skiing, but the clarity they can offer also have another function, which is to provide comfort from eye fatigue and strain.
