    The answer is polarization. It is just like when you are on a boat and use polarized glasses so the water wont reflect into your eyes it also intensifies the color of the water so you can see better into the water.

    example: you cant see any fish because glare from the sun, put on polarized glasses and now you can see fish up to 30 feet deep.
