Photochromic Lens

When used indoors, the Inferno lens provides clear eye protection without any tint.  When exposed to UV rays, the color of the lens automatically darkens, providing protection from the sun. This popular lens keeps your eyes protected in changing environments or weather.  This functional offering is a favorite for its versatility in a variety of settings spanning both on the job and personal use. 

Uses:

• Transitioning from indoor to outdoor activities
• Maintaining eye protection from day to night
• Appropriate coverage in hazy or changing weather conditions

 

Important Information:

• Photochromic lenses are temperature dependent; they look darkest in colder temperatures
• Photochromic lenses use UV light from the sun to activate; they will not transition if restricted by car windshields with UV blockers, underneath a hat, or any other instance where direct sunlight is not present
• VLT ranges from 85% (Clear) to 15% (Dark) across an approximate 60 second transition time.
