Is Prizm Sapphire the same as regular blue-tinted lenses?

No — Prizm Sapphire is a mirror coating over Oakley's Prizm-tuned lens. The sapphire mirror is an external reflective coating; the lens itself uses Prizm spectral tuning to enhance contrast. Regular blue tints simply add colour without contrast enhancement.

Is the Hydra Prizm Sapphire good for driving in India?

Only for daytime driving in bright sun — 12% LT is too dark for evening driving, tunnel driving, or monsoon conditions. Not recommended as an everyday driving sunglass for variable Indian traffic conditions.
