  • Our take on the Transitions Signature Gen 8 Lenses

    Transitions Signature Gen 8 are light-adaptive plastic lenses that darken outdoors and clear up indoors. They are the everyday photochromic option for glasses wearers who want one pair to cover indoor and outdoor use. Against older photochromic lenses they clear faster and darken more fully, though they still lag behind a dedicated polarized sunglass in bright, direct sun. They suit people who dislike swapping between prescription glasses and sunglasses.

    Pros
    • Darken outdoors and clear indoors without changing glasses

    • Good middle ground between clear lenses and sunglasses
    Cons
    • Do not get as dark as dedicated sunglasses in harsh sun
    • Darkening depends on UV exposure, so they stay clearer behind car glass
    • Full clearing takes a few minutes after coming indoors
    • Photochromic performance fades over the life of the lens

    Questions and answers

    How dark do Transitions Signature Gen 8 lenses get?
    They darken to a tinted state in outdoor UV light, but not as dark as a dedicated polarized sunglass. In bright, direct sun many wearers still want a separate pair.
    Do they work while driving?
    Only partly. Car windshields block most UV, so the lenses stay largely clear behind the wheel. They are not a substitute for driving sunglasses.
    How long do they take to clear indoors?
    Clearing typically takes a few minutes and is faster than earlier photochromic generations. Cold weather slows it down.
    Do they fit any frame?
    They are plastic lenses cut to the frame's prescription, so they work in standard plastic frames. Ask your optician to confirm the frame can take them.
    How do they compare with older Transitions lenses?
    Transitions says Gen 8 clears faster and performs better across temperatures than earlier generations. The core trade-off against sunglasses remains the same.
    Where is the Transitions Signature Gen 8 Lenses cheapest?
    At joiuss.com, for $224.36, as of our latest check.
