Photochromics & Tints

Light-adaptive lens solutions

From photochromic technology that responds to UV and light conditions, to fashion tints and polarized options — complete light management for every patient

Complete light management for every lifestyle

Light management is no longer just about sunglasses vs. clear lenses. Modern photochromic technology, specialized tints, and polarized options give patients seamless comfort across all lighting conditions — from indoor screens to bright outdoor environments.

Photochromic Lenses

Automatically darken in UV/bright light and fade back to clear indoors. The ultimate convenience lens.

Fashion & Specialty Tints

Fixed-tint options in gradients, solid colors, and specialty shades for cosmetic appeal and specific activities

Polarized Lenses

Eliminate reflected glare from water, roads, and screens for superior visual comfort and safety.

How modern photochromics work

Today's photochromic molecules react to UV radiation and visible light, darkening within seconds and fading back to clear in minutes. New-generation formulas activate even behind car windshields and in indirect light.

Quick Fade-Back
