Will polarized lenses affect my depth perception?
SEP 30, 2020
Question:
I play a lot of tennis and am considering transition polarized “Drivewear” lenses for tennis. I’m told they create more visual clarity on both gray and sunny days. Do you think that is a good idea or would polarized lenses affect my depth perception?
Answer:
Polarized lenses will have minimal effect on your depth perception. Not sure that the lenses you suggest would have much effect on sunny days, but they might to a small degree help on gray days. I do like the idea of a protective lens over your eye to protect you from errant tennis balls which could damage the eye.
