What are Photochromic lenses?
Photochromic lenses, also known as "transition lenses", are lenses that can automatically change color intensity based on the surrounding light conditions, especially UV light. When exposed to sunlight, the lenses will darken to protect the eyes. However, when in the shade or without UV light, the lenses will return to normal clarity.
Working principle
These lenses are coated with chemicals, such as silver halide or organic photochromic molecules, that respond to ultraviolet (UV) radiation by:
- In the presence of UV (e.g. strong sunlight): The molecules change their structure, causing the lens to darken.
- When there is no UV (indoors or at night): The molecules return to their original state, making the lenses clear.
Benefits of Photochromic Lenses
- 100% UV protection, helps reduce the risk of eye diseases caused by UV light, such as cataracts.
- Can be used both indoors and outdoors, no need to change glasses when entering or exiting the building.
