Transitions® Lenses

Transitions® Lenses are Photochromic lenses or
lenses that change from light to dark based on
U.V (ultraviolet light) intensity.

How do Transitions® Lenses Work?

Transitions® lenses are completely clear inside and instantly darken outside. The Transitions® photochromic molecules are embedded inside the lense coating and recalibrate their structure when in contact with UV light. This change in molecules structure is what causes the lens to darken to an optimal darkness based on UV intensity.

They are known for their good color balance and do better with contrast when compared with gray. These lenses will do well as an all-purpose lens, driving, playing tennis or golf and with variable light conditions.
