Photochromic Sunglasses

HOW PHOTOCHROMIC LENSES WORK?

A photochromic lens is designed to change tint according to the intensity of ambient light. These smart lenses are made from special molecules that react to ultraviolet (UV) rays from the sun. The more UV rays there are, the darker the lens becomes, and conversely, it lightens when UV exposure decreases. This allows you to get optimal protection and clarity without the need to switch between different pairs of sunglasses or accessories.

The principle behind photochromic lenses is based on a chemical reaction involving photochromic molecules embedded in or on the surface of the lens. When exposed to UV rays, these molecules change structure, causing the lens to darken. Once UV rays are reduced or absent (for example, when you move indoors or as evening sets in), these molecules revert to their initial state, and the lens becomes lighter again.

One of the main benefits of a photochromic lens is its ability to automatically adapt to changing ambient light conditions. This provides constant protection from light and UV rays, without the need to switch between different sunglasses or lenses based on lighting conditions. Whether you’re in bright sunlight or shade, photochromic lenses ensure optimal view and suitable protection for your eyes.
