The Photochromic Light Adaptive Lenses
Transition Glasses That Turn Into Sunglasses
Transitions lenses are smart lenses that immediately change from clear to dark tints when exposed to sunlight. They are intelligent lenses that go darker with the equivalent exposure of sunlight. The transitions lenses will come back to the clear state immediately in the absence of sunlight. Also known as photochromic lenses, they change the shades whilst blocking 100% UVA & UVB rays. Transitions lenses have their own advantages and they’re available in three colours - grey, brown & green.
- They’re completely clear inside.
- They have the fastest speed in changing from clear to tint and back
- They’re suitable for all kinds of frames and prescriptions.

How Do Transition® Photochromic
Lenses work ?
- Due to the specific composition of the lenses they absorb more light when exposed to UV rays - making the lenses darker.
- The higher the intensity of UV rays and brightness the darker will be the transitions lens.
- As soon as you come inside the lenses will start getting clearer - Transitions are know for their rapid fade-back speed from dark to clear indoors.
Transitions Benefits
Transitions are pre-loaded with blue light protection and thus, feature all pros from the blue lenses with additional advantage of changing into tints from clear. Transitions lenses block 100% UVA and UVB.

Transitions sunglasses and glasses are the same thing. It’s the Transitions lenses that change a frame from clear glasses into sunglasses after reacting to UV light. People use these two terms to refer to glasses with Transitions lenses.
There are 2 different kinds of Transitions - we use Transitions Signature Lenses which are the most renowned lenses in the UK. Transitions Signature Lenses react to UV light and turn dark to become sunglasses. However, this does not happen while driving as your car’s windshield blocks most of the UV light coming from the sun. If you want your Transitions to turn dark in the car then we can use Transitions Xtra Active on special requests - these lenses react to ambient lighting instead of UV rays.
Photochromic/Reactions are the type of lenses that change colour from dark to light and vice-versa. Transitions® is a branded patented product of these photochromic lenses. Transitions Opticals was the first company to manufacture photochromic lenses and obtain patents for their fastest formula.
You can clean Transitions just like other lenses – with a lens spray and microfibre cloth.

No! The technology is a part of the lenses – the composition is such that they absorb more light when exposed to UV rays, making them darker.
Transition lenses are already loaded with blue light protection, so you don’t need to purchase any additional coating. They also block 100% of UVA and UVB rays.
Light Adaptive lenses are made out of photochromic dyes that turn dark just when exposed to UV rays. When the light source is removed, they fade back to clear lenses.
Transition lenses are effective against harsh sunlight, and both UVA and UVB rays. They block these rays to give you a clear and comfortable vision. Also, the lenses with dark or gradual dark look fashionable all the time. They work as both sunglasses and regular prescription glasses and hence are very cost-effective.
Transition lenses are also called photochromic lenses. Photo means light and chrome means colour. Photochromic lenses change the shade when exposed to light. They turn dark when under sunlight and fade back to clear in normal light or dim light.
When exposed to harsh sunlight, the photochromic dyes activate and turn a darker shade covering the clear lenses completely. These dark shades block glares from the sun and the bright light. They also block UV rays effectively. Photochromic lenses also turn moderately dark when exposed to blue lights from computers and other digital devices.
When photochromic lenses turn dark, they become polarised and allow only vertical light rays of low energy to enter the glasses. The direct and harsh bright light is blocked with the shades. Polarised sunglasses are designed in a way to block all direct rays and only allow vertical lights.
Yes. Photochromic lenses turn dark shade when exposed to bright sunlight. UV rays contained in the sunlight are blocked by the dark shade and cannot enter your eyes. Wearing these glasses will effectively block UV rays from entering your eyes and harming your eyesight.
