Glasses with Transitions® lenses have the unique ability to change tint with light. The lenses reach their darkest in the sun and lighten in the shade. However, they continue to block the sun's harmful UV rays, whether sunny or cloudy.
Mainly used to block glare, Transitions® lenses are popular with athletes. This type of lens ensures good vision in all light conditions. For some sports, wearing glasses with Transitions® lenses is crucial to providing the best performance. Here are a few examples where Transitions® lenses are a must.
Outdoor sports
Outdoor sports like biking and running are usually practiced within varied terrains and are subject to wide variations in light.
In full sun, the light is not the same as under trees; for example, your eyes must adapt to the varying light. These rapid and repeated shifts between light and shadow put the eyes to the test, and that's why Transitions® lenses have become indispensable!
Transitions® technology helps combat glare and maintain optimal vision, no matter your environment.
Water Sports
At the water's edge or on the water, the sun's reflection glares and intensifies the effects of UV rays. Therefore, proper eyewear is an absolute must to protect the eyes from the sun's harmful ultraviolet rays and combat glare. Transitions® lenses are perfect for water activities. They darken on sunny days and brighten on cloudy days.
So, these lenses allow boaters, paddleboarders and sailors to keep a clear, sharp look at the horizon without being dazzled!
