Guide • Golf 2025
In golf, visual accuracy is as crucial as the swing. Polarized sunglasses reduce glare, enhance contrast, and help you read the contours of the green. This 2025 guide explains how to choose the tint, frame, and adjustments that save you shots... and energy.
1) Why polarized glasses in golf?
On a course, grass, sand, water and bright areas create reflections that tire the eye. Polarization filters these horizontal reflections, which improves the perception of relief , the precision of aim and comfort at the end of the game .

Trick
If you squint when going out into the sun, a suitable + polarized tint = less facial tension and more natural alignment.
#Contrast #Relief #LessFatigue
Polarization cleans up reflections: reliefs and lines are more readable.
2) Colors: choose according to weather, time, route
The right filter = the right score. Here's a simple benchmark for 95% of games.

Why golf? |
Brown / Amber
|
Morning/evening, variable sky, shaded green |
Reinforced contrast, accentuated reliefs |
Slope and grain reading, versatile 18 holes |
Neutral gray
|
Full sun, midday, dry summer |
True colors, long-lasting comfort |
Respect for shades of green, no color drift |
Green
|
Homogeneous light (slightly veiled) |
Soothing, neutralizes glare |
Comfort of aim, “green on green” consistency |
Mirror (blue/silver)
|
Very strong reverberation (water, white sand) |
Reduced glare, “calmed” surface |
On links in full sun, clear bunkers, water's edge |
3) Reading the greens & managing light
-
Reliefs : polarization + warm hues (amber/brown) bring out the micro-slopes.
-
Grain : better distinguish the direction of the grass (darker/lighter).
-
Shade/sun transition : visual stability → more regular putting rhythm.
In case of wind/sand/water, a mirror calms the scene and prevents reflexive squinting of the eyes.
Readable reliefs = more confident approach and putt routine.
4) Frames & comfort: swing without discomfort
-
Coverage : wraparound = less side stray light.
-
Nose/pads : stable, no slipping in summer, no pressure points.
-
Weight : under ~30g, you forget you're wearing them.
-
Branches : thin under cap, non-slip.

Thin branches under the cap, stable nose: you stay “connected” to the neck.

Express FAQ — Golf
Polarized = distorted colors on green?
No, not with the right shades. In full sun: neutral gray. Morning/evening/shade: light brown/amber to accentuate the reliefs.
Cap + glasses: useful or too much?
A cap blocks direct sunlight, while sunglasses manage horizontal glare and stabilize vision. The perfect summer combo.
One model for the whole year?
Yes: Wraparound frame, brown/amber tint (versatile). Add a mirror if you often play in very bright sunlight.
And to drive to the club?
Polarized, very comfortable while driving. Some LCD screens may appear dimmed (normal).
