Blue- or purple-tinted sunglass lenses provide stunning and enhanced color perception. They also help you see contours around objects more clearly while offering protection from reflective surfaces, especially snow. Sunglasses with blue lenses also work well in foggy and misty weather.

UV protection matters more than lens color If you have light-sensitive eyes, category 3 lenses may be a good choice for most outdoor activities,” explains Dr. Jacob. “Category 4 lenses may be too dark for everyday use, but they could be useful for certain activities in very bright conditions.” Just keep in mind that category 4 lenses are not recommended for driving at any time. Shop The Best Sunglasses For Light-Sensitive Eyes These extra-dark sunglasses were built to weather the extreme, with considerations that sensitive eyes might appreciate at all altitudes. They have photochromatic lenses that provide a clear picture in a variety of light conditions, and the categories range from 2 to 4 to let in 5% to 20% of visible light. The lenses are also polarized to reduce glare further, and they offer complete UV protection and have an anti-fog coating. The Julbo Explorers feature removable side guards to protect your peripheral vision (or leave them off entirely for a less athletic look), and you can move the temples in every direction — a feature that was meant to accommodate a helmet on extreme sports but also lends to custom comfort. Plus, there’s a non-polarized option in the listing for more color options.

One reviewer wrote: “This is my third pair of Maui Jim’s and I have loved each pair. They are super light weight and are always comfortable. They also last. I still have my other two pairs, but I wanted to update my style a bit since one pair is 6 years old and the other is 10 years old. The polarization is amazing and they are all I recommend!”These extra-dark sunglasses have category 4 lenses designed for wear in "extreme sunshine" and are so dark, in fact, they're not to be worn for road use. And, according to Dr. Jacob, “I usually suggest wrap-style frames to clients with light sensitivity, as these provide additional protection against peripheral light.” The lenses are made from shatter-resistant polycarbonate, and you also get a carrying pouch for extra protection when they're stored away. Plus, the TR-90 frame is ultra-flexible for durable wear, the spring hinges offer lightweight hold for a comfortable fit, and you get complete UV protection.
