What then are the advantages of mirrored sunglasses?
Mirrored sunglasses differ from normally tinted or polarised sunglasses in their performance and appearance. And just like polarised lenses, mirrored ones offer great eye protection by preventing your eyes from straining.

The mirror-coated lenses, also called flash coatings, limit the amount of light that enters your eyes, making you feel more comfortable.

Mirrors are highly reflective coatings that are applied to the front of the lenses to reduce the amount of light entering the eye. This makes them particularly advantageous for activities in very bright conditions, such as skiing on a sunny day. Sunglasses with mirrored lenses also have a coating that makes them more resistant.

Polarized, or anti-glare, sunglass lenses reduce light glare and eyestrain. Because of this, they improve vision and safety in the sun. When working or playing outdoors, you can become frustrated and even temporarily blinded by reflected light and glare. This is a potentially dangerous situation that polarized lenses can prevent.

What Are Anti-Glare Glasses?
Usually, light from the sun scatters as it bounces at varying angles off an object’s uneven surface. But if the surface is smooth, as with calm water or a flat piece of sheet metal, light reflects at one angle. When this light reflects right in your eyes, this is what we know as glare. Polarized sunglasses reduce glare and solve this problem.
