I thought the the point of having polarized sunglasses was that they should be polarized vertically in order to block glare (which tends to be polarized horizontally; see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brewsters_angle http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brewsters_angle). Mine are, anwyay. Usually it is the LCD screens that are polarized at a 45 degree angle - for compatibility with sunglasses.
- devenson 16y agoI had Lens Crafters make me a custom pair of polarized sunglasses with the polarization at 45 degrees to match up with my laptop's polarizer. Used with the laptop, they dim everything I see BUT the laptops screen. Not all laptops have the same 45 degree tilt, some are 180 from mine.
