YES! Oakley M2 polarized. Got en for Christmas. I use contact lenses and have a bit of dry eyes, so the sun was really bothering me, specially near noon.
Im really distracted by what goes around wheb I play, even distracted with a cap, when I catch it with my eyes, so was really worried wearing sunglasses would feel weird and Id buy them and never use them. I even tried a friends special sports sunglasses (dont know thw brand) and they moobed around and, like I expected, becane distracted because I saw the rim out of the corner of my eye. Didnt like them.
Now thw M2's, perfect. So light, doesnt have a rim around the lens, so you dont see it, and it covers your sightline completely, while removing the glare plus UV ray protection. Theyre a perfect fit, stay in place, dont slip...
They might not be the coolest, but definitely the BEST, suited for the job.

The Bolle Competivision are outstanding. The are specifically made for tennis. The lenses make everything dull but the yellow ball pops much more brightly. Several people have tried mine and all ended up buying them.

Do they help with glare/sunlight UV rays?

Yes, they are good for glare. The main benefit for tennis is that they help so much with the contrast of the ball.

Yes I agree. I was hesitant because the price but I've never regretted the purchase. I use them all the time.

Also a long-time user of Bolle. I prefer the rimless version as it collects less sweat.

I would imagine yes. I use the older Mumbo frames and like them for tennis and cycling. These look a lot like the Mumbo lenses.

Polarized is not good for tennis, I hear

I’ve been using polarized lenses for 20 years now with no problems. I must be doing something wrong

I love polarized lenses. I just read from SportRx that it's usually not recommended https://www.sportrx.com/blog/best-lens-colors-for-tennis/ when I was doing shopping for tennis glasses. Your anecdote gives me hope. Other people here have complained about polarized glasses so I figured the claim was true.

I have never had a problem with depth perception. I have also found it very bright and there’s glare from the sun.
