See the difference polarized lenses make!

Use your mouse to see the difference polarized lenses make!

In 1944, the first commercial sunscreen now known as Coppertone® was invented to protect WWII soldiers. Since then, the makers of Coppertone have been dedicated to sun protection, making Coppertone the most trusted suncare brand in America.

A New Vision in Sun Safety!

Thanks to a partnership with Vision-Ease Lens, the leader in polarized lens technology, consumers can now enjoy fashionable, durable, premium Coppertone™ polarized sun lenses. These truly unique lenses block 100 percent of harmful UVA and UVB rays and offer more protection from High-Energy Visible (HEV) light than ordinary sun lenses, an important way to help keep eyes healthy into old age.

Going Outdoors?
Don’t Forget Your Copppertone!

Coppertone Polarized Sun Lenses provide added protection against High Energy Visual (HEV) light, aka, "blue light." But unlike "blue blockers" Coppertone lenses are designed to block harmful UV light and filter out the blue light spectrum, so colors remain clear and true, so stoplights and other important visual information won’t be hard to see.

It's old news that overexposure to the sun is extremely harmful to our skin. But many people are still unaware of just how damaging the sun can be to eyesight.

Over time, exposure to the sun’s harmful HEV and UV rays without proper protection can contribute to many long term problems, including: cataracts, macular degeneration (most common cause of vision loss in individuals over 55), premature skin aging and cancer of skin on the eyelids.

Since avoiding the sun completely isn't possible or realistic, everyone, especially the youngest among us, need effective eye protection. That's why Vision-Ease Lens and Coppertone offer patented polarized lenses for the entire family. Who better than Coppertone, America's #1 trusted brand in suncare, to protect your family's eyes from the harmful effects of the sun?
