How are Transition lenses more effective than regular sunglasses?
The glasses that turn dark in the sun can be used as sunglasses. These glasses are called transition lenses or photochromatic lenses. Whenever you step out in the sun wearing these glasses, the clear lenses turn darker shielding your eyes from the harsh sunlight. When you step back inside your dark glasses clear up giving you clearer vision even in a normal or dim light setting.
But are they actually more effective than sunglasses?
Better protection with transition lenses
Good quality regular sunglasses protect your eyes from the harsh sun.
Even better quality sunglasses with polarised lenses or mirrored tints protect your eyes from the reflected rays and harsh glare.
And the best quality of sunglasses protects your eyes from harmful UV rays.
The fast transition of the transition lenses protect your eyes from all the degrees of harsh glares and reflected lights. Also, transition glasses can block 100 per cent of UVA and UVB rays, which makes them better than the best quality of the sunglasses.
Blue light protection
Transition lenses can be worn in front of computers and they can function as effective as blue light glasses. Photochromatic lenses adjust according to the light they are exposed to. When exposed to the blue light emitted from the computer screens, these glasses block the bright light and protect your eyes. You will not wear out after working for hours.
Convenient at all times
Transition glasses change their colour according to exposure to the sunlight. You don’t have to change your glasses to sunglasses to see in the sun or remove your sunglasses when you step back into a normal lit room. You will not have to carry around two cases of glasses.
If you are a busy bee, changing your eyewear all the time can be a hassle. And it is not easy to take note of it all the time. You might forget to put on your sunglasses and hurt your eyes in the harsh sunlight. You can keep wearing your transition glasses all the time without needing to remove them, except for sleeping.
Reduced chances of losing your glasses
If you don’t carry around an extra pair, then you don’t have to worry about losing your glasses. You will not need sunglasses if you get transition lenses for your prescription glasses.
Unmatched Style
Transition glasses offer you a style that regular sunglasses cannot match. These glasses have three colours of shades, the first one is clear, the second is dark and the third one is a gradual tone which is the state in between becoming fully dark. It turns a gradual tone when it is in bright light but not enough to turn fully dark. This look makes you look very stylish. Sunglasses cannot match up to this look
Cost-effective
Your normal prescription glasses will cost you on an average £50 and your sunglasses will fetch about £100. You will use up about £150 pounds minimum. And this is only the cost of the frames. Getting them made in prescription will cost you extra. You will be adding more to the cost if you are looking for the best quality glasses that protect you from UV rays as well.
Transition lenses will cost you £55 if you are buying from Specscart.
