    The low sun on the A1 in the morning used to be a nightmare. These cut the glare off the road completely and they sit right over my glasses.

    I've tried clip-ons for years. These are the first fit-overs that don't slip and actually block the sun from the side window.

    What drivers say about their UV Light Protection Driving Sunglasses.

    • Finally, sunglasses that go over my glasses

      I've worn prescription glasses for 20 years and always had to choose between seeing clearly and squinting into the sun. These slide straight over my frames and the polarised lens takes the glare right off the road.

    • The low winter sun isn't a problem now

      My commute is east in the morning and west in the evening, straight into the sun both ways. With these on the road looks calm instead of white.

    • The side shields are the best bit

      Normal sunglasses let the sun in through the side window. These cover it completely, and they're comfortable enough for a three-hour drive.

    • Brilliant after rain

      When the sun comes out after a shower the road turns into a mirror. These cut that glare straight away. Worth it for that alone.

    • Quality case and cloth too

      Bought them for my husband, who wears varifocals and hated clip-ons. They fit over his glasses nicely and come in a proper hard case with a cleaning cloth.

      60-Night Road Test

      The Sun Doesn't Care That You're Driving.

      It always happens at the worst moment. A roundabout, a junction, a cyclist ahead, and the low sun hits the windscreen and everything turns white. You squint, flip the visor down, and it still doesn't reach. Your normal sunglasses won't go over your specs.

      And it isn't only the sun in front. It's the glare bouncing off wet tarmac, the bonnet of the car ahead and the windscreen itself. That reflected glare is what really blinds you, and it's exactly what a polarised lens is built to cut.

      By the end of the drive your eyes ache, your head hurts and you've spent the whole journey guessing what's in front of you.

      CUT THE GLARE

      Dazzling sun is a real road danger

      Every year around 2,400 people are hurt on Britain's roads in crashes where dazzling sun was a contributing factor. It's worst in autumn and winter, when the low sun lines up with the morning and evening rush hour.

      What the numbers say

      53%

      of UK drivers worry about low-sun glare when driving in autumn

      37%

      say sun brightness has made it hard to see the road ahead

      41%

      of sun-dazzle crashes happen on A-roads, the roads most of us use every day

      16%

      higher risk of a life-threatening crash in bright sunlight than in normal weather

      Before and after: harsh sun glare on the road, then the same road clear and sharp

      Same road. No glare.

      Ordinary tinted sunglasses just make everything darker. A polarised lens blocks the flat, horizontal glare that bounces off roads, water and windscreens. That's the glare that whites out your view.

      The road ahead looks crisper and calmer, without the squint.

      CUT THE GLARE
      Side shields block UV and glare from every angle

      Blocks the sun from the side window too.

      Regular sunglasses leave the sides wide open, and that's exactly where the sun hits you through the driver's window on a long drive.

      Our wraparound side shields cover it, giving UV protection and less glare from every angle, not just straight ahead.

      CUT THE GLARE
      Sarah L. wearing the UV sunglasses over her glasses

      Fits right over your prescription glasses.

      No £150 prescription sunglasses. No clip-ons that scratch your lenses and fall off at the first pothole. The oversized fit-over frame slides straight over the glasses you already wear.

      Light and comfortable, so you can wear them for the whole commute and arrive with relaxed eyes instead of a squint headache.

      CUT THE GLARE

      Questions drivers ask

      Straight answers. No waffle.

      Glare from roads, water, wet tarmac and windscreens bounces off as flat, horizontal light. A polarised lens filters that light out, so you see the road without the white-out. Ordinary tinted lenses only make everything darker.

      No. These are daytime sunglasses. Never wear sunglasses when driving at night or in poor visibility.

      Yes. They're an oversized fit-over frame that slides over most standard prescription glasses, varifocals and bifocals. Very large or wide frames may not fit, and if yours don't, our 60-Night Road Test has you covered.

      Yes. The lens is designed to block UV light, and the wraparound side shields help keep sun out from the sides as well as the front.
