History Of Ray Ban

Ray-Ban is a manufacturer of sunglasses, founded in 1937[1] by Bausch & Lomb. They were introduced for the United States Army Air Corps[2]. In 1999, Bausch & Lomb sold the brand to the Italian Luxottica Group for a reported $1.2billion[3].
Ray-Bans were initially created in 1937. Some years earlier, Lieutenant John MacCready had returned from a balloon flying adventure and complained that the sun had done permanent damage to his eyes. He contacted Bausch & Lomb asking them to create a type of sunglasses that would not only provide protection, but also look elegant. On May 7, 1937, Bausch & Lomb officially took out the patent[3]. The prototype, known as Anti-Glare, consisted of an extremely light frame weighing 150 grams. They were made of gold-plated metal with two green lenses made of mineral glass to filter out infrared and ultraviolet rays. Pilots in the United States Army Air Corps immediately adopted the sunglasses[3]. The Ray-Ban Aviator became a well-known style of sunglasses when General Douglas MacArthur landed on the beach in the Philippines in World War II, and photographers snapped several pictures of him wearing them.[3]

Ray Ban lens types

Monday, January 25, 2010
Polarized (reduce glare caused by light reflected from polarizing surfaces such as water.)

Non-Polarized
B15-XLT (Dark Brown)
G15-XLT (Dark Green)
Some of the above can be plastic or glass. I'm not sure if the B15 & G15 XLT lenses are polarized; however, they do cost more money.
