I worked as an optician and all you have to do is look outside and look at a hot spot on a car or something shiny, and if it diminishes almost completely they’re polarized.

[@maxarons8976]

You said you need to use an LCD display and you used an AMOLED one...

[@EyeHeartShades]

This method works both on LCD and AMOLED screens.

[@imranwafi2962]

true

[@AureliusR]

It shouldn't work on AMOLED screens at all -- they do not need polarizing filters. it's possible some manufacturers install them for optical clarity, whereas in LCDs they are fundamental to the way the technology works. If you do this with an LCD screnn, the LCD will go COMPLETELY black. This is the best way to test, as it is very, very obvious if they're polarized.

[@daxter8792]

Thanks for that explanation. Was remembering people complaining polarized making phones turn black and my coworker checking out my new prescription sunglasses and noticing they could see their phone screen when I mentioned they were polarized and started to worry the dealer didn't hear me say I wanted them polarized

[@Kreln1221]

You can also use a second known polarized lens, from another pair of glasses for example, and you basically do the same thing. You look through both lenses, and then as you're looking through both of them, you turn one lens 90°. If both lenses are polarized, then they will be relatively transparent, and light will go through both of them when the polarization of both lenses are aligned in the same direction, but when the lens's polarization are 90° to each other, they will turn opaque and not let any light through.

A much easier way is using a common calculator quartz screen, turn calculator on, press some random numbers and do the same, screens turns all black on polarized.

You can also look at tinted car windows. Not after market film tinting, but the kind that is built into the glass. When you look at the window through polarized glasses you will see diamond shapes.

[@alwaysopen7970]

Or not at all. Depends on who makes the glass.

[@brenda46ist]

Re: how to tell if sunglasses are "polarized", there is another simple test: if you have one pair of polarized glasses, you can place a 2nd pair of lenses behind (so you are looking thru both lenses at the same time. If aligned on the same plane, turn the bottom ( ? lense) 45 degrees (either Ryan. Or lt.). If this blocks out ALL light thru the lenses, the questionable lenses are polarized. The reason being that polarized lenses block light in one direction. If light travels thru both lenses initially, turning one lenses. Perpendicular to the other will block all light telling you that both lenses are "polarized".

[@soloparatusojos.]

Excellent! Quick and easy.

my polarized glasses at horizontal position does block all screen and when i tilt head left or right it brightens, so yea kind of different experience or maybe ray bans got shit polarization

[@shiningyrlife]

if u have a LCD monitor, wear your sunglasses while looking at the screen, then tilt your head left and right. If the monitor darken, u have a polarized glasses.

[@LuisVivar]

Is it normal that one lens is polarized at a different angle than the other one? (Whenever I see a display, even the ones on my car's dashboard, both lenses receive a different amount of light, making an effect akin to the one caused by the 3D glasses in movie theaters)

[@ArabizeKnowledge]

Thanks for the valuable information, but I want to ask, I see through the polarized sunglasses the sun reflected in the glass of cars in the form of a blue dot. Isn't this a blue light pass to the eye and is it dangerous؟ Thanks again

[@sylvia4425]

Before the advent of the smart phone...we did exactly this but instead of using a smart phone "lens" as the 2nd lens...we held up the questionable sunglasses up to another pair of ACTUAL polarized lenses. If they turn darker (or blackout) as you rotated....you knew the 'questionable' sunglasses now passed the test and are actually polarized. *(I realize most people know this...but there might be a 16 yr old or really young person who doesn't know this.)

[@jftube3333]

Excellent tip, thank you!

[@kumardigvijaymishra5945]

Adjustable angle polarizer sunglasses are best !!! Is there a trade-off between UV protection & glare protection?

[@austinionhammons]

Good to know! I learned something today!

[@mustafaahmad6585]

I have polarized optical sunglasses as you showed in the video the lense of glass full or little bit coming black but in my glasses it comes in broken portion dark black color. So why it is like that tell me sir please?

[@jigartikiwala3789]

Thank you so much. It really helped.

[@arialvaradorosales9870]

Cool and practic vid!! I just see to a neon light, or any reflex on windows or even confront two polarized, and there's the point where there's no image, 'cause they block all the light. I can"t live without polarized at outdoors, since I got the fist ones (arnette) 25 years ago. It"s funnu how some people love polarized (me) and some peole just don't get use to them (my wife). Thanx !!

You can also use a pair of polarized sunglasses. Look through one pair while rotating the other. The lens will you are looking at will turn dark and light depending on the angle you turn it. If no darking/ lightening then one pair isn’t polarized.

[@ronsmith4330]

How can anyone give a dislike! That is straightforward valuable info. I’d bet that the disljets will secretly use that technique though!

[@rayhaankhan6195]

you could alternatively just wear your sunglasses and tilt your smartphone display at odd angles whilst looking at it.. if you see areas on screen that are non uniform in terms of color or brightness it is polarized

I just bought Oakley batwolfs on the Letgo app. They were advertised as non polarized soft grey lenses but when I perform this test on my LG LCD TV the lenses fade out to almost all black at around clockwise 2:15 angle. Are they polarized? I payed $50 and theyre mint. The pretty girl seller said that the boyfriend she broke up with a year ago left them at her place and that they were never used once. She said they have been collecting dust in a drawer for a year. Her loss my gain?

[@RefugeetheDJ]

How i tell if they’re polarised: it says “ray ban p” on the lens

[@noorhasan6663]

They might be fake ones in my country you can get true copy having p on rayban lenses but they aren't polarized.. You can't really rely on that p unless you have bought from authentic or authorized dealer of company's merchandise ..😀

Those who are complaining about the "3 seconds" should know that to realize if its polarized or not it will take 3 seconds and to do the setup it may take ages for you as you are too laze to even watch this. Its a neat 1 and simple to understand.
