The water-air surface acts like a polarizing filter, reflecting back some angles & letting others through, so that on sunny days, depending on the angle of the sun, light undwerwater can be very polarized. Octopi & cuttlefish can see polarized light differently and use it.
If you were determined to experiment with a polarizing mask, you could get a sheet of plastic polarizing filter & pop it into your mask behind the lenses.
Here's one place to get it:
