About Transitions® Lenses
Transitions® lenses are photochromic lenses, which means they darken into sunglasses automatically when exposed to sunlight. When indoors, away from UV light, these lenses return to their normal clear state. These lenses are ideal for people who go in and out of doors frequently or who don’t want to switch between their regular prescription glasses and a pair of prescription sunglasses.
Transitions® lenses provide the following benefits:
- 100% UV protection to maintain healthy eyes
- Glare reduction to reduce eye strain
- Convenience
- Rapid transition from dark to light and light to dark for quick visual adaptation
- The ability to adjust the amount of darkness based upon the amount of UV present for better clarity
Transitions® lenses can be made in a variety of styles, prescriptions and materials:
- A choice of grey or brown tints
- Single vision, bifocals, trifocals and progressive lenses
- Plastic and polycarbonate lenses
- Anti-reflective and scratch resistant coatings
