Order Data Reviewed
Submit complete RX, design, polarization color and transmission, material, frame data, coating and finishing. Availability and manufacturability are confirmed before production.
Practical B2B Supply
Start from free samples, then discuss repeat ordering, packaging and special engraving marks.
Who We Support
Polarized Lenses Options for Different Customer Needs
Select the appropriate polarized lenses design, material, treatment and finishing from the prescription, frame, intended use and destination-market requirements.

Distance or near prescription sun lenses with a polarized filter for reflected daylight glare, subject to material and RX compatibility.

Distance-and-near polarized sun lenses in supported segment styles, reviewed with ADD, segment height, PD and frame data.

Freeform distance, intermediate and near correction combined with a compatible polarized sun-lens system.

A daylight option that can reduce reflections from wet roads and horizontal surfaces. Dark polarized lenses are not intended for night driving.

Polarized daylight option for water and outdoor activities. Lens, frame and complete assembly must meet any applicable protective standard.

Supported thinner polarized material options for suitable prescriptions, subject to color, design, diameter and production compatibility.
Polarization Axis and Glare-Control Testing
The polarization orientation is checked with laboratory equipment so the filter axis matches the specified lens configuration.
Polarization can reduce directionally polarized reflected daylight glare, but it does not eliminate every type of glare.


Digital Display Compatibility
Some LCD and instrument displays can look darker, uneven or difficult to read through a polarized lens at certain orientations.
Include critical screen tasks with the order and test the finished eyewear at real viewing angles.
RX, Axis and Transmission Inspection
The laboratory checks prescription parameters, polarization orientation and applicable transmission requirements against the submitted order.
Protective performance applies only when the complete finished eyewear is tested and documented to the relevant standard.

Polarization targets reflected daylight glare
A polarized filter can reduce directionally polarized reflections from water, wet roads and other horizontal surfaces. It does not eliminate every source of glare.
Dark polarized lenses are for daytime use
The deep smoke-gray option shown reduces visible-light transmission and is not intended for night driving. Digital displays may also look darker or uneven at certain viewing angles.
Select the complete lens system
Prescription, design, material, frame, polarized color and transmission, coating, finishing method and destination-market requirements should be reviewed together.
- Submit the complete RX: right and left SPH, CYL, AXIS, ADD and prism/base when prescribed.
- Select the material and design: CR39, polycarbonate, 1.56, 1.60/1.61 or 1.67 with single vision, bifocal, progressive or another supported design.
- Provide fitting data: monocular PD, fitting height and position-of-wear data required by the design.
- Provide frame data: A, B, DBL, effective diameter, mounting type and preferably a frame trace.
- Specify the lens system: polarized color and transmission, material, compatible coating, finishing, quantity and destination.
- Describe the viewing task: include daylight use, water or road-glare priorities and any critical digital-display requirements.
A polarized filter can reduce directionally polarized reflected daylight glare from water, wet roads and other horizontal surfaces. It does not eliminate every kind of glare.
Yes. Compatible single vision, bifocal and Freeform progressive polarized designs can be produced after complete RX, fitting-data and frame review.
No. Dark polarized lenses reduce visible-light transmission and are intended for daytime use, not night driving.
Yes. Some LCD and instrument displays can appear darker or uneven at certain viewing angles. Critical screen tasks should be tested with the finished eyewear.
No. A polarized lens alone is not a safety certification. The complete finished eyewear must be tested and documented to any applicable protective standard.

Custom Polarized Prescription Lenses for Optical Businesses
Heritage Optical Lab supplies custom polarized prescription lenses for laboratories, retailers, distributors and private-label partners. Supported programs can include single vision, bifocal and Freeform progressive designs in compatible materials and colors.
Reflected-glare control for daylight use
The polarized filter can reduce directionally polarized reflections from water, wet roads and other horizontal surfaces while preserving useful scene detail. It does not eliminate every kind of glare, and dark polarized lenses are not intended for night driving.
Deep neutral smoke-gray appearance
The images show a deep neutral smoke-gray polarized lens with clearly visible, crisp detail through the lens area. Actual transmission and color depend on the selected product and confirmed specification.
Prescription designs and display compatibility
Compatible single vision, bifocal and Freeform progressive designs can be reviewed against the submitted RX, fitting data and frame. Because polarized filters can make some displays appear darker or uneven at certain angles, critical screen tasks should be included with the order.
Factory axis, transmission and RX inspection
Supported designs are calculated from the submitted order, processed in the laboratory and checked for prescription, polarization orientation and applicable transmission requirements before release.
OEM, wholesale and laboratory supply
For samples, availability and quotation, send the prescription range, design, diameter, polarized color and transmission, fitting and frame data, coating, finishing method, expected quantity, packaging requirements and destination market.
