I have always believed that non polarized lenses are very bad for your eyes because they do not block UV but do keep your pupils wide open. I guess if not polarized you could wear mirrored glasses for that purpose
You guys are right about instruments. With polarized Maui Jim, Gill or whatever else I can only read instruments when they are straight ahead and not at an angle. Chart plotter at helm is OK. This of course often results in lifting the glasses and putting them on top of head or ball cap. This then can result in another trip to sunglasses store.
