Are these polarized?

@k4yd4rr Hi No sorry.
true vintage American Optical sunglasses, especially models intended for pilots, were not made with polarized lenses.
The reason is that polarized lenses can interfere with instrument visibility and reading digital displays in cockpits, which is why they were intentionally avoided in aviation eyewear.

Since American Optical was a primary supplier for military and aviation use, especially in earlier decades, it’s highly unlikely that any authentic vintage AO sunglasses would have come polarized.
Thanks
