See Clearly Beneath the Surface: Fishing Sunglasses Perfected at Empire Optical

Fishing Sunglasses

Fishing is a meditative dance between patience, skill, and a keen eye. But when sunlight glares off the water, ripples distort your vision, and elusive fish hide beneath the surface, even the most experienced angler can struggle. Empire Optical, equipped with Oklahoma’s most advanced lens lab, is your one-stop shop for fishing sunglasses specifically designed to enhance your vision and help you see success on the water.

Why Invest in Fishing Sunglasses?

Regular sunglasses might seem okay, but fishing sunglasses offer significant advantages:

  • Unmatched Clarity and Reduced Glare: Unlike everyday shades, fishing sunglasses boast high-quality, impact-resistant lenses with specialized coatings. These coatings cut through glare bouncing off the water’s surface, allowing you to see deeper into the water column and spot fish more easily. The exceptional clarity also helps you identify subtle changes in water conditions and track your bait with precision.
  • Superior Protection from the Elements: Empire Optical carries fishing sunglasses crafted from Polycarbonate and Trivex, two champions in the world of lens materials:
    • Polycarbonate: This lightweight powerhouse offers superior impact resistance, shielding your eyes from unexpected hooks, lures, or flying debris. It also blocks harmful UV rays, protecting your eyes during long days spent under the sun.
    • Trivex: This newer material boasts exceptional clarity, scratch resistance, and superior optics compared to Polycarbonate. Ideal for anglers who demand the best possible visual experience and scratch resistance when navigating brush and trees.
  • Enhanced Contrast and Color Perception: Fishing sunglasses often feature specially designed lenses that enhance specific colors on the light spectrum. This allows you to see through water distortion and differentiate between fish, vegetation, and other underwater objects with greater ease.

Choosing the Right Lens Material, Color, and Mirror Coating for Your Fishing Trip

Empire Optical’s lens experts will guide you through material, color, and mirror coating options based on your fishing style and preferences:

  • Lens Material:
    • Polycarbonate: The most popular choice for its affordability, lightweight comfort, and excellent impact resistance and UV protection.
    • Trivex: Ideal for anglers who prioritize superior optics and clarity, with exceptional scratch resistance compared to Polycarbonate.
  • Lens Color: The optimal tint depends on water conditions and light:
    • Bright Sun: Opt for neutral-toned lenses like gray, copper, or amber. These provide excellent sun protection while enhancing contrast and allowing you to see deeper into the water.
    • Choppy Water: Consider polarized lenses for exceptionally calm vision. These eliminate glare bouncing off the water’s surface, allowing you to see through the ripples and into the water column.
    • Low Light: If you fish during dawn or dusk, consider lenses with a lighter tint like yellow or rose. These enhance contrast and depth perception in low-light conditions.
  • Mirror Coating: This additional layer on the lens can further enhance your vision:
    • Lakes and Shallow Ocean: A green or amber mirror coating is ideal for these environments. It cuts down on blue light that penetrates deeper water, allowing you to see through glare and spot fish in shallower depths.
    • Deep Ocean: For deep-sea fishing, consider a blue mirror coating. This reflects even more light, providing superior sun protection and allowing you to see through the intense glare on the surface of deep ocean waters.
