Transition and Photochromic Lenses: How They Work

Photochromic lenses are designed to change their light transmission when exposed to certain ultraviolet radiation. They are commonly chosen by people who want lenses that adapt between indoor and outdoor environments.

Indoor and Outdoor Use

Photochromic lenses are generally clearer indoors and darker outdoors under suitable conditions. The exact behavior depends on the lens technology and environment.

Consider Your Lifestyle

They can be convenient for people who move frequently between indoor and outdoor spaces. However, performance can vary in vehicles and behind certain windshields because UV exposure may be reduced.

Choose the Right Frame

Photochromic lenses can be combined with many frame shapes. Your frame choice should still prioritize fit, comfort, and compatibility with your prescription.
