One lens for all SEASONS: Rain or Shine. A Guide to Transition Lenses

Are you tired of switching between your clear glasses and sunglasses?

At SEASONS, we offer transition lenses that can be worn indoors and outdoors all day long, and now with exciting colours to choose from. 

What are transition lenses? 

These lenses contain photochromic dyes that rapidly activate and darken when exposed to UV light. The lens changes its shade depending on the intensity of the UV light present. The greater the intensity of the UV light, the darker the lens becomes. The lens then fades back to clear when you go indoors where there is no UV. 

Benefits of transition lenses

  • It allows for an effortless transition from clear lenses indoors to dark lenses outdoors.
  • They continuously and smoothly adapt their level of tint in changing lighting conditions for better visual comfort.
  • It blocks 100% UVA and UVB rays. It filters blue-violet light (400-455nm) indoors and outdoors.
