Yes, these sunglasses provide 100% UV protection. In short, "polarized" sunglasses block reflected light/glare from surfaces like water, snow and glass. This can be very helpful if you spend time on water (fishing, sailing) on snow (skiing/boarding, snowshoeing, etc.), or drive on wet/snowy roads. Obviously, most people perform at least some of these activities, and (personally) I have found that polarized shades are worth the extra cost. FWIW, the sunglasses on this page are not polarized.
