    Wish I could use indoor tints, but like most creatives who work on a computer doing things like phtoshop, color correction, graphic, 3D, we need 100% clarity in the lenses. I even avoid blue-blocking coatings because they often add a "warm" yellow tint to the lens.

    • @DBSites
      @DBSites 3 วันที่ผ่านมา

      I’d recommend trying out a 10-20% black tint (not a grey tint) for true color perception. Greys have that slight cooling effect, but a black is just a darkening effect without altering color perception. Even a black gradient tint would work really well for you.

    Hey thanks for that explanation. I was just abut to order Oakley transition lenes and saw those 2 options. I have 2 pair of XtraActive transitions and really like them. But I had never heard of Gen S. I did a quick search and stumbled upon your video. I live up North in the summer and Florida in the winter so its over 70 degrees about 85 percent of the time. Taking a few more minutes to lighten indoors is not a big deal for me. Thus XtraActive seems to be the best choice for me for all of my glasses. Oh and one more con on the XtraActive is indoor it has an ever so slight yellowish tint. Virtually unnoticeable but when I take them off and look at them closely I can see it. It never bothers me wearing them because its so faint. Most people probably never notice.

    • @HicksBrunsonEyewear
      @HicksBrunsonEyewear 8 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Only one is polarized. It is called XTRActive Polarized Grey. Some have said that it appears to get slightly less dark than XTRActive Non-Polarized Grey. I have not verified this scientifically, but I believe I have noticed this effect as well. Even if true, I don't see it as an big issue myself when it comes to comfort in bright sun when I am in places that I like polarized lenses. For example, I have worn XTRActive Polarized at the beach, and the polarized effect is real. It does quite well at reducing the brightness of the disabling glare reflecting off of the ocean surface.

    @Mickey_Bauer 9 วันที่ผ่านมา

    I had Xtractive for more than 3 years and loved them, other than night driving. I'd prefer clear lenses for night driving. I do have a problem with them now. Some kind of coating on the lenses (inside) failed miserably and it shows like hundreds of lines/cracks, it's peeling too. I think they are Essilor polycarbonate. It's possibly the anti glare coating that's now causing all kinds of insane glare and lines when driving at night. Can't use them at night anymore. I may try Gen S this time.

    • @HicksBrunsonEyewear
      @HicksBrunsonEyewear 8 วันที่ผ่านมา

      What you are describing sounds like what we call crazing. This is damage to the anti-reflective coating. The cause is typically exposure to extreme heat. One way that this can happen if the glasses were ever left inside a parked car that was parked outside under the sun in the summer heat. Even in short periods of time the inside of the car can heat up like an oven, and sometimes the coating can be damaged by this heat. If the glasses were even set on the dashboard of the car with the sun shining in, they can be damaged here quite quickly. These are some common ways this can happen, but there are others.

Went black in the watery UK Winter Sun. Barely changed colour in Thailand's sear your eyeballs out glaring heat. Just got another pair after being promised new gen technology solves all problems. No real difference. It's clearly not just the heat otherwise walking out of aircon would turn them. It's something about the geography, angle or wavelength. They know but they aren't telling.

    • @HicksBrunsonEyewear

      Both Gen S and XTRActive work all around the world, but each user has his or her own preferences. Do you want faster transition times, or darker tints in warmer weather. Technology constraints limit us for now to needing two different lenses depending on your preference. There are two variables that affect photochromic technology. UV intensity and temperature of the lenses. They generally get darker and stay darker for longer in cooler temps. Those molecules that move from clear to dark move more slowly when they get colder, like all particles do. When they get warmer they move more quickly. They are in an unstable state when UV intensity is coming and going, and they are always trying to move back to the clear state. Gen S is much faster to move back and forth, but XTRActive is still the best tech for working well in warmer weather. Gen S does not replace XTRActive. The two technologies are needed because of the varying climate differences around the world and user preferences.

    • @HicksBrunsonEyewear
      @HicksBrunsonEyewear 9 วันที่ผ่านมา

      I really don't see any "residue" tint color on most Gen 8 or Gen S lenses that I have seen. That technology is about as clear as you can get while indoors. Now, if you lay any photochromic lens flat on bright with paper you may see a slight 'residue' tint color on Gen S or Gen 8. While you are wearing the glasses though, Gen S should not show any visible tint to most people when looking at you. Even many of my XTRActive lenses are so light that most people do not ever notice any color while I am wearing them indoors, even though most XTRActive lenses will have a slight hint of tint even in their clearest state.

Outside, I also prefer wearing XTRActive vs. traditional transparent lenses. Indoors, I prefer wearing Gen 8 or traditional lenses. I have a pair of Essilor Varilux Lens with Transitions XTRActive and a Fire Red Mirror Coating. I also have Transistions Gen 8 and XTRAactive with Mirror Styles and without Mirror Styles. XTRActive Grey with Fire Red Mirror Coating Pros + All visible light wavelengths activate the XTRAactive vs. UV activates the Transitions Gen8 + Great for outdoor sports and driving, use them everyday for walking and running outside + Become much darker than Transitions Gen8, even more so when below 70 F outside + Better than Transitions Gen8 for outdoor activities and driving + Quick to darken and lighten, still work great after 1 year of daily use Cons - Prefer not to use indoors, too much light attenuation and too many internal reflections from indoor light sources - Try not to use these outside at night because of internal reflections from vehicle lights, street lights, etc. - Still usable after dusk, but prefer to wear Transitions Gen8 or non-Transitions lenses

      I agree with all of your points. I would just add that in my experience of fitting the XTRActive Style Mirrors across many different sets of people, I have found that some are bothered by the indoor and nighttime reflections while others are not bothered by it at all. It depends on the individual.

    So this transitions start at around 35% and in sun go dark way darker to around 90%?! What technology is this?? My opticians here with Zeiss or Rodenstock cant do it!

      This is Transitions Gen S with a Fire Red 35% base tint and a flash blue mirror. It's a sweet looking Tint-Mirror-Transitions combo. Please let us know if we can help you with any of your eyewear needs.
