🧠 Why Non-Polarized Wins for Everyday and Court Use

Most people assume polarization is a must for outdoor glasses—but in sports, it’s not always ideal. Polarized lenses can interfere with depth perception, a critical component in a fast-paced sport like pickleball.

Blinded Wear uses non-polarized lenses in all performance frames to maintain:

  • Accurate distance judgment

  • Clear tracking of ball movement

  • Reliable vision when transitioning from sun to shade

From competitive serves to catching up over coffee, your eyewear should match your pace and your style.
