I use to be a huge RayBan fan in the past. Actually, the other week I was walking through a store looking for "cheaper" sunglasses for my son and I noticed that some were way less expensive upon looking closer I learned they were not polarized. At the time I was like WTF who would buy these...is this just a price thing...didn't know polarization negatively affected some people.

If you have a link about the vertical scanning, I would be interested in reading it.
