What Transitions Lenses Do
Transitions lenses are light-adaptive lenses that darken outdoors and return to clear indoors. They are designed for people who want one pair of glasses that responds to changing light.
They can be useful for commuting, walking, travel and everyday wear where conditions change frequently.
How They Compare
Compared with clear lenses, Transitions lenses offer extra comfort in bright outdoor conditions. Compared with dedicated sunglasses, they are more flexible but may not replace every specialist sunglass need.
For many wearers, they reduce the need to carry a second pair while still keeping clear indoor vision.
Who They Suit
Transitions lenses suit people who move between indoors and outdoors throughout the day. They are also popular with customers who want a tidy, everyday option without constantly changing glasses.
Your prescription, frame choice and driving needs can affect which adaptive lens option is best.
