The undisturbed view of waves and light is only recommended with the correct and intelligent sun protection for the eyes: sunglasses with polarised protection lenses – which naturally protect against UV and blue light.

In its current SUN 2008 Collection, Silhouette opts for the sunglass technology of the future with the polarised lenses IQ POL, and has also produced all models of the SUN 2008 Collection using these lenses.

What is thus the most intelligent and relaxing sun protection for the eyes – especially for those who spend a lot of time on the water – is available at select specialist opticians as of autumn 2007 in ten different models, each with three different coloured IQ POL sun protection lenses.

Anyone spending time on a surfboard or a yacht is at the mercy of wind and weather conditions – and that for hours, often days, on end.
The sunlight breaks itself down into millionths on the waves and thus dazzles more than on land; the eyes are additionally aggravated by the wind. The yachtsman seeks even the gentlest gust of wind, which makes itself known by means of an almost imperceptive rippling on the water’s surface.

He has to keep as much an eye on the wind and weather as he does on approaching boats and possible shallow areas. The recognition of contrasts, such as the boundary between the weather and sky in the case of longer wind strokes on the sea, is important for orientation.
