Get ready for spring with light adaptive lenses

As the seasons change, so do the lighting conditions around us, making it difficult for those wearing glasses to constantly switch between multiple pairs. This is where light adaptive lenses come to the rescue. These lenses adapt to any environment, making them perfect for the changing seasons. Read on to learn more about light adaptive lenses and why they might be the right fit for you.

What are light adaptive lenses?

Light adaptive lenses, also known as photochromic lenses, are eyeglasses lenses that automatically adjust their level of transparency to the amount of light around you. These lenses are designed with precise details to ensure they darken in bright light and fade back to their original state in normal or low-light settings. Each lens includes light-sensitive molecules which allows them to shift their structure when UV light appears and rapidly reverse when the UV light goes away.

Introducing Hoya Sensity Lenses

We offer Hoya Sensity Lenses to all patients who are interested in choosing transition lenses. These are a specific type of light adaptive lenses that provide the most advanced technology and features to offer every wearer convenience, comfort and never better colour perception.

Hoya carefully design each lens to provide 100% UV protection at all times and have a fast fade back speed when the lenses adjust to your surroundings. Not only that, but they also reduce any glare you may be experiencing with your current glasses so that you have much clearer clarity for your day-to-day life.

The benefits of light-adaptive lenses

1. Why have multiple pairs when you can just have one? These special lenses allow you to have both an optical lens and a sunglass lens in one frame meaning you don’t need to switch between two pairs when the weather changes.

2. Hoya Sensity Lenses always offer 100% UV protection, meaning you don’t need to worry about harmful UVA and UVB rays from the sun causing any damage or diseases to your eyes.

3. You can save your pennies! With these lenses you can have your prescription glasses and sunglasses all in one so no need to spend more money on two frames.

4. You can have them fitted into any frame of your choice! With our wide selection of designer and non-designer frames you won’t be compromising your style when it comes to these lenses. You can walk around with the best clarity and protection whilst making statement.

5. They rapidly transition. These glasses lenses have a much faster fade back speed then the previous generation of these lenses. In fact, their fade back speed is almost twice as fast, meaning you do not have to worry about being temporarily blinded when you step indoors from a bright sunny day. This feature is particularly useful when driving or cycling, especially when moving from a bright sunny environment to a low-light environment.

The next steps...

If you are looking for the upmost convenience, less hassle and 100% protections then Hoya Sensity Lenses are for you. Perfect for an active lifestyle or if you want an efficient solution to make your life easier.
