Transitions & Photochromic Safety Glasses
Seamlessly adapt to changing light conditions with prescription photochromic safety glasses. Designed for workers who move continuously between indoor facilities and bright outdoor job sites, these light-adapting safety lenses remain clear indoors and automatically darken to a sun tint when exposed to UV light.
Glazed into certified ANSI Z87.1 high-impact frames, our photochromic prescription lenses eliminate the hassle of switching between clear safety glasses and safety sunglasses, delivering continuous vision protection, 100% UV filtration, and visual comfort all day long.
Frequently Asked Questions
How fast do Transitions safety lenses change from dark to clear?
Modern photochromic lenses darken within 30 seconds of UV exposure outdoors and fade back to clear indoors within a few minutes.
Do Transitions lenses work inside vehicles or forklift cabs?
Standard photochromic lenses react to direct UV rays, which are blocked by vehicle windshields. For drivers, specialized Extra Active photochromic lenses are recommended as they react to both UV and visible light.
Are photochromic prescription safety lenses ANSI Z87.1 approved?
Yes, photochromic safety lenses are crafted from shatterproof polycarbonate or Trivex materials and meet high-velocity ANSI Z87.1 impact standards in both clear and darkened states.
