The Smith Optics Guide’s Choice Bifocal Sunglasses solve one of fishing’s most frustrating problems: constantly switching between polarized sunglasses and reading glasses. These performance sunglasses integrate a bifocal reader segment directly into polarized lenses, so you can tie knots, check your GPS, and scan the water without fumbling for a second pair of glasses.
The bifocal design features a 25mm magnified segment at the bottom of each lens, available in +2.0 or +2.5 reader strength. The upper portion delivers full distance vision with polarization to cut glare and reveal fish beneath the surface, while the lower bifocal zone handles close-up tasks—rigging tackle, tying flies, reading screens—without interrupting your focus. Carbonic polarized lenses are impact-resistant and block 100% of UVA, UVB, and UVC rays.
Smith’s ChromaPop lens technology filters wavelengths where blue/green and green/red light intersect, eliminating color confusion so your brain recognizes true color faster. The result is enhanced contrast and definition that helps you spot structure, read water conditions, and track fish more effectively. Anti-reflective and hydrophobic coatings resist smudges and moisture for consistently clear optics.
The rectangular wrap frame is made from Smith’s Evolve bio-based material—a lightweight, durable polymer that incorporates 53% renewable content from non-GMO castor plants. An 8-base curve provides wide coverage and side protection from sun and wind. Premium Italian spring hinges flex for a secure fit across different face shapes, while Megol nose and temple pads increase grip when exposed to moisture, keeping the sunglasses stable during active days on the water.
The Guide’s Choice Bifocal works beyond fishing—driving, cycling, golf, or any outdoor activity where you need both distance clarity and near vision. The medium-to-large fit suits most face sizes, and the included detachable leash ensures your sunglasses stay secure when conditions get rough.
