Help identifying if these Ray Bans are real

Hi there! Hoping for help to identify if these vintage ray bans are real. I purchased them from someone whose husband served in the army in the 70s and 80s and said the US army was providing Ray Bans to everyone during that time. The glass feels solid and the markings are on the top bar (B&L Ray Ban USA and B&L Ray Ban 58 4 underneath top bar), but the frames have a slightly tinny sound to them when they move. The nose bridge is a bit bent in the photos below but seems to be adjustable.

If they are real, are the lenses polarised? Thanks for the help!
