Don’t Waste Money on Flawed Sunglasses
Think about it:
Even in sunny Australia, lighting conditions vary throughout the day.
Not to mention countries like the UK, where the weather can change instantly.
Unfortunately…
Traditional sunglasses are dumb:
In other words:
You can spend $100, $150, or $200 on golf sunglasses… only to have them fail every time a cloud passes by.
So let's…
Fix the #1 lens flaw once and for all!
Want to know how it works?
Let me explain…
From Low light to Full Sunlight
The Only Golf Sunglasses for All Weather Conditions
Sanofan golf sunglasses combine the two best colors for golfing into a single lens.
And this is where the magic happens:
Each FluidTint lens contains millions of specialized particles that absorb energy from the sun to change color from amber to copper.
This is called a photochromic reaction, and as a result…
The perfect amount of light reaches your eyes at any given time, whether it's low light or sunlight.
As the light changes during the day, your vision and ability to track the ball remain the same.
See the Difference! (Each pair includes an instant color-change test.)

Endorsed by Our Most Demanding Customers!
Initially, most of our customers were avid fly fishers, and when it comes to sunglasses…
They demand the highest contrast and definition lenses to make fish stand out from the bottom.
Then, something interesting happened:
More and more customers started wearing their Sanofans on the golf course, too.
Now, color-changing sunglasses have become an insider tip among golfing enthusiasts.
- 1I have been using for fishing and golf. No longer have to remove when sun ducks behind the clouds. Great quality build.
— Tim Crook, CA, USA - 2These are my new golf course glasses, they clear the glare off the water to find lost balls better too!
— Edward Monette, IN, USA - 3I am using them for golf. It takes the glare out and helps me follow the golf ball in its flight. They work great.
— Francis Markott, NY, USA - 4I'm not a fisherman, but the sun glasses are great for playing golf and driving. I give them a five-star rating.
— Faye Bartley, IL, USA - 5I have owned many polarized sun glasses in my life, and the Sanofan are by far the best I have ever had. They work as described, and you can't beat the price point, especially in comparison to glass I have paid four times as much for. I would highly recommend these glasses to any avid fisherman or golfer.

Customer Reviews
I'm 74, fished all my life. These are by far the best sunglasses I have ever used.
I absolutely love these sunglasses. No more eye strain. Super clear view. These glasses work at low light as well as bright sunlight. I don’t have to take them off because of shadows like other sunglasses. Highly recommend Thank you.
I bought several different types of golf sunglasses and the Sanofan Smart Sunglasses easily won the competition! They offer the best contrast and comfort of all the pairs I tested. The Sanofan glasses are now the only glasses in my golf bag.
I wanted a pair of glasses for fishing and for pickleball. I do not like grey or black lenses. These are perfect for me. They cut the glare and do not over darken the environment. Perfect. Highly recommend. They do not feel like plasticy junk. Well made and perform.
These are a comfortable choice. Lightweight, good coverage, great polarizing for seeing fish below the surface. The lens color yields a bright field of vision, and they do adjust to changing light conditions as advertised. Would definitely buy again, and much cheaper than other brand name polarized glasses.
Have only used them once on calm day in our club dam. I was able to view the fish on the edge very clearly and even when the wind got up I was still able to view moving fish.
I love my new Sanofan sunglasses. I wear them when I’m playing golf and I’m so happy that I can see the ball regardless of the weather conditions. Thank you so much
Very comfortable to wear and great underwater

Why Sanofan Sunglasses are Polarized
Sanofan golf sunglasses are polarized to shield your eyes from the sun's harsh glare during golf practice swings.
In fact, our polarized lenses are as effective as Costa Del Mar's 580P lenses.
Does polarization reduce depth perception?
No, this is a myth that is easily disproven.
For instance, on our reviews page titled "I Retired my Maui Jim's", you will find that…
Sanofans shine not just for golfing and fishing, but also for sports where precise depth perception is crucial, such as clay target shooting and hunting.
At the same time, your eyes are protected against glare fatigue.
Best of all, you are guaranteed to make the best choice because…
Our 6-month money-back guarantee covers you!
This means you can test your Sanofans for a full golf season before deciding.
If you're not completely satisfied at any point during that time, simply contact us, and you'll get your money back the same day.

Adjustable Nose Pads
And because of the adjustable nose pads, you don’t need to worry about the size of your nose, either.
I like how they sit away from your face just a bit, so they breathe and don't fog up like most sunglasses I wear do.

Removing blue light is essential in enhancing contrast. This is because blue light tends to scatter in the eye, making it difficult to focus.
But only yellow, amber, and copper lenses can block blue light. In fact, this is what makes them special.
All other lens colors, including gray, let blue light rays hit your eyes completely unfiltered.
What's worse:
As your pupils widen behind dark gray lenses, even more blue light enters your eyes' retina.
In other words:
When wearing gray lenses, the problems blue light causes, like blurred vision and mild headaches, tend to get worse.
So, why not yellow lenses?
Yellow lenses are good at increasing contrast, but terrible at removing glare from the water surface.
And here is why:
A good polarization filter removes all visible light of a specific angle, which makes the lens appear darker.
As yellow lenses cannot be made darker or else they would loose their light tint, a weaker form of polarization is used that leaks reflective light.
First, in order to avoid confusion:
Mirror coatings in silver, blue, or green are not lens colors, but just a thin layer on top of the actual lens.
Their main purpose is to cut out even more sunlight, which makes them uncomfortable to wear in low-light situations like dawn, dusk, and on overcast days.
This is why we don't use them.
Also, if applied directly to the lens surface, those shiny metal coatings are naturally prone to scratches.
Sanofans are the ideal option for golfing and fishing, including fly-fishing, carp fishing, bass fishing, and more.
However, maintaining optimal vision in various weather conditions is essential for numerous activities, including boating, hunting, and even clay pigeon shooting.
I have used them driving and hunting, and they have performed great.
-- James Dooley, USA
Really helps seeing wild life. Great for hunting and fishing
-- Zane Young, USA
I would highly recommend these glasses to any avid fisherman or golfer.
-- Neal Gilliam, USA
I'm not a fisherman, but the sun glasses are great for playing golf and driving.
-- Faye Bartley, USA
They do the job exceptionally well, [...] especially when i’m clay pigeon shooting
-- Is Dupoy, United Kingdom
Yes, they are.
Yes, they are the same. The separate pages for fishing and golfing are intended to highlight the specific applications for each sport.
As you can see on the reviews page, our customers wear Sanofans for various activities including fishing, golfing, driving, cycling, hunting, and sport shooting.
Sanofans with FluidTint lenses work great for driving in daylight, where they sharpen contrast and remove reflections from the windshield.
Just note that inside a car, the color change won't be as apparent as outside.
This is because the windshield filters out part of the UV rays that are responsible for the darkening effect of the lens.
A word of warning:
Sanofans are not suitable for driving at night. For night driving, only glasses with yellow lenses should be used.
If you are ok with this limitation, you'll enjoy wearing your Sanofans in the car:
They are great fitting sunglasses, not just good for fishing but excellent for driving
-- Dwight McLeod, Canada
I ordered 2, so I could use a pair while driving and one for fishing
-- Eric S., USA
Loved them so much I bought a second pair for driving
-- Rodney Bond, USA
My guess: It's because it would hurt their bottom line.
Instead of selling you just one pair that works all the time, it's much more lucrative to make you buy separate sunglasses for overcast and sunny days.
Now, you might ask:
"So why do you sell color-changing sunglasses?"
The better our sunglasses, the more we sell through word of mouth marketing. So by making the only sunglasses you'll ever need, everybody wins.
Sanofans with FluidTint lenses shield you from all UVA and UVB rays and pass US standard ANSI Z80.3:2018.
Here's the test result:
As you can see, Tmax UVB and Tmax UVA are both at 0.00%, which means FluidTint lenses blocks all rays of that light range.
Now, this is important:
Not all sunglasses that pass this standard fully protect your eyes.
Standard ANSI Z80.3:2018 allows up to 3.76% UVB and a whooping 30.10% UVA radiation to reach your eyes, while still being considered "UV protective".
So make sure to always ask for the actual test report before making a decision.
