Automatically adapting to changing light, Transitions lenses darken when outdoors and return back to clear when indoors.

Transitions
Transitions lenses are the #1 eyecare professional-recommended
photochromic lenses worldwide. Transitions lenses are equipped with
patented, photochromic dyes that enable the lenses to rapidly darken,
when they are exposed to ultraviolet light. The greater the intensity of
UV rays, the darker the lenses become. When UV light is no longer
present (indoors or at night) the lenses fade back to their original
state.
Because Transitions lenses offer more than just vision
correction. They automatically adapt to changing light, providing your
eyes with exactly the amount of light they need for any situation, so
you see better. They also help protect your eyes from UV rays, and
reduce squinting and eye fatigue.
Transitions everyday lenses get as dark as ordinary sunglasses (category
3). If you prefer the darkest lenses available we recommend Transitions
XTRActive, our darkest everyday lenses ever. Photochromic lenses react
to their environment so the level of darkness is influenced by
temperature, UV exposure and lens materials.
The glass in car windscreens blocks more than 99% of UV light, so
most photochromic lenses do not darken noticeably in the car. We offer a
solution: Transitions® XTRActive™ lenses contain a
specially designed photochromic formula that responds to both UV light
and short wavelength visible light, so they are able to moderately tint
in the car. Transitions® Drivewear® adaptive
lenses enhance the driving experience by combining two of the most
advanced technologies in the eyeglass industry: NuPolar®
Polarization eliminates glare off the road and car hood, and Transitions
photochromic technology adjusts the colour and tint of the lenses as
light conditions change. The lenses evolve from green for low light
driving conditions to copper brown in bright, sunny driving situations.
Transitions adaptive lenses darken when exposed to UV light. As UV
from sunlight is typically not present indoors, the lenses will be
clear. The exception is Transitions XTRActive lenses, which react to
both UV and visible light. This allows them to get extra dark outside
and also when you’re sitting in bright sunlight behind a window.
