TRANSITIONS PROGRESSIVE AND PHOTOCHROMIC LENSES

Produced by Robertson Optical

Indoors or outdoors, day or night, Transitions Lenses create the visual comfort of a special changing tint that lightens and darkens as the light changes. When exposed to UV rays, Transitions Lenses change. The higher the UV, the darker the lenses get. The lower the UV, the lighter the lenses get. Car windows and windshields are already treated to block ultraviolet rays. Patients should consider having a fixed tint or Transitions Performance Lens for driving in very bright sun. Transitions Lenses enhance patient’s quality of vision by providing the combined benefits of optimal visual acuity, visual comfort and protection from the damaging effects of UV radiation and glare.

Transitions Vantage lenses are everyday photochromic lenses that start out virtually clear and non-polarized indoors; outdoors they not only adapt to changing light but also increase polarization as they darken, optimizing the angle at which light reaches the eyes to help control glare and light scatter.

Until now, polarization only existed primarily as a fixed film in sun lenses. Transitions Vantage lenses employ a new technology different than current photochromics and polarization. While current photochromic molecules darken in random patterns, creating an even tint, the photochromic dyes in Transitions Vantage lenses not only darken, but also align to create polarization. This means that Transitions Vantage lenses will have a variable level of polarization efficiency depending on the amount of UV exposure – the darker the lens, the more polarization efficiency there is. The lighter the lens, the less polarization there will be.
