Do Transition Lenses Work Behind a Car Windshield?

Traditional photochromic lenses are activated primarily by ultraviolet light. Vehicle windshields are designed to filter UV, so standard transition lenses may not darken as much inside a car as they do outdoors.

This is an important difference for drivers who expect their regular transition glasses to become as dark as sunglasses. Specialized photochromic technologies may behave differently, so always check the specifications.
