They are polarized. Bought them to address headlight glare.  In my case they had NO effect.  At night glare was still an issue.  They DID &#34;brighten&#34; the view at dusk.  The nose piece is not quite as comfortable as I would have liked but I wore them all day and they fit fine.  When you look at what's out there they stand out when it comes to price and probably perform as well as any other yellow tint / blue blocker polarized lens.  So they get high marks for being what they are:  polarized yellow lens blue blockers at a good price.  But if you have a night driving &#34;glare&#34; problem they might not provide a major benefit.
