What are polarised lenses?

Polarised lenses have a coating applied to the lens to darken it and add colour and offers UV protection, also cutting out glare on the horizontal wavelength. This safety filter reduces the annoying, and sometimes dangerous, reflections that water and roads can create on your lenses, making it especially handy for activities like driving, running, and biking.

How to tell if lenses are polarised?

Hold the lenses in front of a LED or LCD screen and rotate them about 90 degrees. If the lenses are polarised, the screen will become darker or completely disappear. If the lenses are non-polarised, there will be no change.
