You think drivers are high-tech? Today's course-ready sunglasses embody a range of advanced performance features, including rimless frames that help reduce visual interference throughout your swing; lightweight titanium-alloy construction; and lenses that filter blue light and increase green contrast, making greens easier to read, and birdies easier to make.

(From top to bottom)

Maui Jim Kapalua ($259)
The temples have neither hinges nor springs, but are as malleable as pipe cleaners, so they cling to your head.

HaberVision Corsica ($155)
Flexible and lightweight, the frame is all but unbreakable.

Nike Levanto Max ($199)
The sturdy, slip-free nose piece is a cinch to adjust and is ventilated to reduce fogging.

PeakVision Sports SD7 ($169)
A "two-zone" lens eliminates glare and sharpens your vision, while a hidden frame on the inside of the lens adds support.

Callaway X650 ($245)
With this trendy, one-piece lens, you'll win style points in both Pebble Beach and South Beach.

Kaenon Variant Series V7 ($299)
A patented polarizing lens offers high resolution, and the eye-catching metal alloy temples add a touch of class.
