All people are looking forward to the summer months, when the sun begins to warm, especially warm. However, along with heat, it carries the danger of ultraviolet radiation. Therefore, with a long stay in the summer in the sun, the skin should be lubricated with protective creams, and eyes protected from the sun with glasses.

Among the many existing manufacturers of sunglasses the most profitable is Polaroid, which offers its customers the highest quality products at fairly reasonable prices. Polaroid sunglasses will best protect your eyes from exposure to sunlight and at the same time become a stylish accessory of any image.

About company

The company's unprecedented success was achieved thanks to its talented founder and inventor Edwin Herbert Land, who received as many as 535 patents in his entire life, and the first was obtained in 1929.

Through research works, Land managed to create the world's first polarizing material, called Polaroid. This material has the ability not to transmit light, which forms glare, and to muffle the light that is too bright for the human eye. It is through the use of this material in various devices and glasses that the company has become and remains popular and loved by many buyers for more than 70 years.

In 1934, Kodak acquired the right to use the patented technology. Having received a decent amount from the buyer, Land invested in the development of his own Polaroid corporation and increased the staff. In 1937, the first Polaroid sunglasses were sold using a polarizing filter, which marked the beginning of the existence of the famous corporation.
