Finally someone with a good intro. Only 24 seconds until the real video starts and you showed what you want to tell us. No 50 seconds animation, no useless talking, just straight to the point. Thank you.

Thank you. I did not know photochromic and transition were the same thing. You just saved me $45 on a pair of glasses.
Cris LeRoi hey
You're very welcome! :)
Transition lense darken faster for the generation 8th
I did well only because I googled it

In all my years of seeing demonstrations on TH-cam this one is by far the best! Everything was explained beautifully in a clear and understanding voice!
The best review I've ever watched. Brief and concise and no stupid back stories that are not related in reviewing a product. Thank you for your insights.
You are welcome! 😎
6:17 that guy driving the car needs some polarized sunglasses...😂😂 He brake so hard...
Lol, I didn't even notice that until I was editing this video. Hilarious! :)
Man, this is the most accurate explanation about we all needed to know. Thanks for your info. Well appreciated
An excellent video, straight to the point, clear definition and then a working illustration. Thank you.
First off, great video. This is exactly what I have been looking for. I really want Transition 7 or Xtractive glasses, but as much as I hate changing glasses, I think for me my best option is to buy a normal pair of Glasses for indoors and a separate pair of Polarised Sunglasses for driving and being outside.
Glad we could help, thank you for sharing! :)
@@UseMyFramemy transitions XTRActive polarized lens are not as dark as the ones you have indoors? Any negatives to wearing these indoors?
Got it. Explained like a champion. Got what I needed to know in under a minute. Perrrrfect 👌🏻
Cin Day hey
Thanks for the vid. Your comment on direct light requirements of Photochromic lens helped alot!
Thank you for taking the time to do this very informative video!
Hey bud, thanks for taking the time in making this video, it was super helpful how you dumbed it all down!
this video was perfect. thank you for explaining it like that
Glad we could help, thank you for sharing! :)
Very helpful. This actually answered my question and made my choice. Thank you
Informative, articulate, clearly explained so why the thumb-downs? Some people are ridiculous.
It simply they just can't relate bcoz of the slow brain function
Thumbs downing videos makes less videos like this appear in your feed
They didn't get the answers to their homework
Thumbs down probably are from people who got deceived by paying a larger amount for the branded lenses
I just thumbed down @InTheZoneMan and all the lame responses! Gave this video a thumbs down too so youtube knows I responded to it. Very beneficial to this guy. You are welcome.
This was tremendously helpful, and explained so well. Thank you.
very straight to the point and easy to get. thank you.
Thank you for the simple and clear explanation, really helps me :)
Good video, now I know why I like polarized lenses for daytime, they cut a lot of glare. I don't like that Transitions don't darken when you're in a car, since they need direct sunlight to darken.
So it seems that photochromic/transitions has a few disadvantages - first it needs direct sunlight to darken and second it does not block glare as good as polarized. It seems like a better option would be to get a polarized clip-on attachment.
I have been wearing Transitions for years on Gen 8 now. I have prescription sun glasses in the car as the optical store has buy one get one free. The Transition’s are worth it as I work 60% of my day outside,The gen 8 darken and undarken faster and go darker.
Wow, thank you so much. I’ve been trying to decide if Transitions would be best for me considering my eyes are VERY sensitive to the light... Seeing the comparison, I think I would rather just get polarized clip-ons. Thank you so much! This is the very best video on transitions on TH-cam!
That's awesome, thank you! :)
Definitely straight to the point and I will be checking out the website
Awesome video! Thank you for explaining this the way you did!
You're very welcome! :)
hell yeah, you solved the confusions I had with photochromic and transitions, good video thank you
Thank you. You explained things really well.
I really enjoyed this video! I just ordered my first pair of photocromic glasses and they had the option of transition lenses or photocromic lenses and I was very nervous about the quality of the photocromic lenses but this put me at ease! Thank you!
Samantha Jordan hey ma’am follow me Channel channel
The Transition Gen 8 is a major improvement over the previous generation. Gen 8 became available during the summer of 2019.
Where photochromic alot cheaper, I've had transition lenses?
Thank you. This is the way things should be explained. Simple and succinctly.
Glad it was helpful!

Thank you.
Que buena😀 explicación. No lograba encontrar una demostracion de las diferecnias pero tu lo has hecho fenomenalmente. Gracias. :)
This was very helpful. Thank you. But was also curious about how long it will take for the photochromic lenses to transition back to clear.
Exactly what I needed to know, right off the bat. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Driver at 6:17 might be like "Damn! My transition lenses won't darken!" :))

You’re very welcome!
Brilliant video thank you so much
A lot informative, thanks!
Thank you for a very detailed and informative video.
Very nice and without any montage we can see the real effet of those !
The reason Transitions don't darken in the car has nothing to do with direct sunlight. The darkening is activated by UV light - the more UV present, the darker they get. If you need proof of this, simply go outside on a cloudy or overcast day, particularly when there is snow on the ground. A lot of times they will go darker than they would on a bright sunny day - which is scary because unless you've seen that, most people don't realize just how much UV is present on overcast days (you can literally get a sunburn on an overcast day). All car glass contains a UV filter in order to slow upholstery fading and protect your eyes. Since the UV doesn't make it through the glass, the photochromic element is not activated (Transitions XtraActive lenses are more sensitive, and will darken to a degree in the car).
You are absolutely correct. However, your whole paragraph kind of contradicts your first sentence. It _does_ have something to do with direct sunlight because direct sunlight has UV. *Direct* is the key word, and I found it helpful that he used it. Sunlight filtered by a windshield is not direct and is therefore subject to the windshield material's properties... in this case, UV filtering, because glass and polycarbonate filter UV by nature.
We tell customers "direct sunlight" because many of them don't care or have time to understand UV and its relationship to everything. The fact remains though, you are correct about UV, and have a better understanding of how everything works than the average person.
"The reason Transitions don't darken in the car has nothing to do with direct sunlight"
"The darkening is activated by UV light"
UV comes from direct sunlight
So I got a pair of transition lenses. They darkened outside on gloomy days, triggering in me a some sort of depressive mood because they were working due to UV levels. You can get UV protection on clear lenses. What I wanted was lenses that changed according to Sunlight. I am not really any the wiser
Good answer Johnny, thanks! :)
Very accurate, thank you for contributing! :)
Terrific informative video. Thank you for sharing!!!! 😎
So helpful! Thank you!
Great explanation thank you
Wow! Thank you so much! This was amazingly helpful!
You're so welcome!
This was so helpful, thank you for taking time to create this video and explain the difference. Great examples and it was so helpful to see the difference.
Great explanation!
Thank you for the explanation
01:06, The Change RX in the middle shows a hint of colour on that table, it darkens its footprint. The Transitions to the left appears almost totally colour free.
Therefore, one can assume that Change RX is of lesser quality given Transitions outdoor performance which darkened just as well as the Change RX.
Thanks for this. While driving the sun's reflection was tiring my eyes.. I have an photochromic spectacle..but thanks to your video.. i need a polarized spectacle 👌👍🙏
Very well explained, thank you for the information. Now I know the difference. 👍👏👍
You are welcome!
damn, somebody should make Polarized Photochromic Lenses !!
They do. Transitions Vantage
I got tinted photochromatic lenses from Zenni optical
I just ordered some on Amazon. Hopefully they're good
@@deliawood1 what brands sell these lenses cause I can't find any of them
julbo photochromic and polarized
Informative video👌
Thanks! That info was helpful
Great video! Thank you
Great information, Thanks
This video is informative and SUPER CLEAR, no pun intended.
Good one, lol! :)
I was introduced to transitions lenses today after the eye exam and I thought "what a weird name for a lens type" because it doesn't sound like anything I studied in physics. Now it makes sense since you explained it is actually the brand! Anyways, thanks also for the demo between photochromic and polarized lenses. After the eye exam the salesperson tried to sell me photochromic arguing that I wouldn't need prescription sunglasses if I get photochromic. I assumed it would eliminate sun glare just like polarized lenses but now I see it won't. This video helped me a lot to decide what I'll get and it is not going to be photochromic for sure! THANKS
That's awesome, glad we could help! :)
Shinji , which lense is best..
Hi Neil found your TH-cam channel. Great works you have.
Awesome, thank you! ;)
Thank you for explication !
Hats off to you sir. Outstanding and to the point explanation and illustration. Those thumb down idiots are just TH-cam haters; or possibly they can't even understand simplified explanations.
I appreciate it so much, thank you! :)
Great educational video. Thank you.
Dustin Kulwicki 😃

Great Information. Thank you
Thank you for the comparison!
You are very welcome! Let us know if there are any other comparisons you'd like to see! :)
Soft, clear and slow english for not native, simple e explanation
Very well explained! Thanks!
Glad it was helpful! Be sure to check out our new video on the newest Transitions and how they compare: studio.th-cam.com/users/videoBPtAswgJbEk/comments
Thanks a lot for the clarification. I'm wondering if you know there is any difference between photochromic lenses made of glass (crystal) and those made of polycarbonate. For example is the silver chloride a coating in the latter case, and could, therefore get scratched off ? I've heard that in the case of glass, this chemical is incorporated and thus scratchproof.
Very Informative thank you
Thank you so much. This is a very well explained video. I learnt a lot.
You're very welcome!
Thank you for the video sir
Perfect 👌🏻 Thank You
Thanks! I’m getting my transition lenses in about a week and wanted to see how they looked outside! I chose brown so they match the frames I chose

Great video .
Good information for optician students!
Intresting video i have a pair of transiton/photochromic in my new glasses (most of the opticans in the uk and in my hometown call them adaptive lenses) and they usually add a anti reflection coat it was a better option for me as i go to motorsport weekends often in the sun and then other times i spend quite alot of time inside so polarized is no good for me downside here they are a pretty expensive option
Very useful information
