Clr2Drk frequently asked questions
-
What are Clr2Drk Light Adaptive Lenses?
Clr2Drk Light Adaptive Lenses are innovative eyeglasses that adjust their tint based on the light conditions. They darken under bright sunlight to provide comfortable vision and UV protection, and clear up indoors or in low-light settings for optimal natural vision. -
How do Clr2Drk lenses work?
Our lenses use photochromic technology that responds to UV light. When exposed to the sun, the lenses automatically transition to a darker shade to reduce glare and protect your eyes from harmful UV rays. Once you move away from UV light, the lenses quickly return to their clear state. -
Are Clr2Drk lenses available in different styles and frames?
Yes! We offer a wide range of frame styles to ensure that you find the perfect match for your fashion sense and functional needs. From modern to classic designs, all our frames are compatible with Clr2Drk lenses. -
How long do the lenses take to transition between clear and dark?
Clr2Drk lenses are designed to respond quickly to changing light conditions. They transition from clear to dark in about 60 seconds, reaching full darkening within 5 minutes when exposed to direct sunlight. When you move indoors or to shaded areas, the lenses start to clear in about 5 minutes, with complete clarity achieved at 10 minutes. For those seeking state-of-the-art performance with even faster transitioning capabilities, consider Transitions lenses. Their ability to shift from clear to dark and back at exceptional speeds is unrivaled, providing seamless visual comfort in rapidly changing light conditions. -
Are Clr2Drk lenses durable?
Absolutely. Our lenses are designed with durability in mind. They are scratch-resistant and built to withstand the rigors of daily use, ensuring longevity and consistent performance. -
How much do Clr2Drk and Clr2Drk+Blue lenses cost?
Our Clr2Drk lenses are priced starting at $29.95. The final cost may vary depending on your specific prescription type, strength needs, and any additional features you choose. Similarly, our Clr2Drk+Blue lenses, which offer added blue light protection, start at $35.16. Just like with our Clr2Drk lenses, the price for Clr2Drk+Blue lenses can increase based on the complexity of your prescription and any extra customization options. This flexible pricing ensures that you can find the perfect lens solution tailored to both your vision needs and budget. -
What is the difference between Clr2Drk and Clr2Drk+Blue lenses?
Both Clr2Drk and Clr2Drk+Blue lenses offer 100% protection against UVA and UVB light, ensuring your eyes are shielded from the harmful effects of the sun. However, Clr2Drk+Blue lenses provide additional protection by blocking up to 98% of blue light in the 400-420nm range, which includes the most harmful part of the blue light spectrum. This extra layer of defense helps minimize eye strain, improve visual comfort, and reduce potential sleep disturbances caused by blue light exposure, making them an excellent choice for both outdoor wear and extensive screen time. -
Do Clr2Drk+Blue lenses have a colored tint in their clear state?
Our Clr2Drk+Blue lenses are designed with advanced technology to effectively filter harmful blue light while maintaining a cosmetically clear appearance. Unlike some blue light blocking lenses that can have a yellowish tint, our +Blue lenses remain clear with virtually no color distortion. This ensures that you can enjoy the benefits of blue light protection without altering the natural color of your vision, making them ideal for all-day wear, both indoors and out. -
What should I expect during the first use of my Clr2Drk lenses?
When you first use your Clr2Drk light-responsive lenses, they may require up to 45 minutes of direct sunlight to activate fully. Initially, the lenses will deepen in color with each exposure to the sun, gradually reaching their full potential for darkness after a few uses. This activation period allows the photochromic compounds in the lenses to adjust to their new environment, optimizing their performance. -
Can I use Clr2Drk lenses for driving?
Clr2Drk lenses are activated by UV light, which your car's windshield may block, preventing the lenses from darkening fully inside most vehicles. For driving, we recommend considering our Transitions XTRActive lenses, which are specifically designed to activate under UV light and visible light, making them more suitable for use in the car. While they do not darken to a full sunglass level (level 3), they reach a moderate tint (level 2), providing better visibility and glare reduction during driving compared to standard photochromic lenses. -
Do Clr2Drk and Clr2Drk+Blue lenses get as dark as sunglasses in direct sunlight?
While Clr2Drk and Clr2Drk+Blue lenses significantly darken in response to bright sunlight, they do not reach the full darkness of a level 3 sunglass lens. Level 3 sunglasses provide the highest tint available, ideal for extremely bright conditions and are often used in high-glare environments like water sports or snow activities. Though our adaptive lenses do not get this dark, they provide sufficient tint for most everyday outdoor conditions and offer excellent sun performance. If you are particularly sensitive to light or require the d arkest possible tint in a photochromic lens for outdoor use, we recommend considering Transitions XTRActive lenses. These lenses are designed to achieve a level 3 darkness even on the brightest and hottest days, ensuring optimal comfort and protection. -
How do Clr2Drk lenses perform under different weather conditions and temperatures?
The performance of your Clr2Drk lenses can vary depending on several factors. On cloudy days or when wearing a hat, the lenses may not darken as much because of reduced exposure to UV light. Additionally, in temperatures over 85°F, you might notice less darkening due to the natural impact of heat on the lenses’ responsiveness. If you live in a very hot climate or have concerns about p ast performance of photochromic lenses in extreme conditions, our Transitions XTRActive lenses are designed to provide more consistent darkening even in challenging environments. -
What are the best light adaptive lens options for kids?
For children's eyewear, we highly recommend our Clr2Drk+Blue lenses made from polycarbonate. This combination offers superior protection and durability, ideal for accommodating the energetic lifestyle of children. Polycarbonate is an exceptionally impact-resistant material, well-suited to withstand daily wear and tear. In addition to its robust physical properties, the Clr2Drk+Blue variant includes added blue light filtering. This feature is particularly beneficial for kids who frequently use digital devices, as it helps minimize eye strain and shields their eyes from the most harmful parts of the blue light spectrum. Together, these features make Clr2Drk+Blue polycarbonate lenses an excellent choice for keeping young eyes protected and comfortable in varying light conditions. -
Do you offer Clr2Drk with progressive lenses?
Yes, we offer progressive lenses in both Clr2Drk and Clr2Drk+Blue varieties. Progressive lenses provide a seamless transition from distance to near vision, eliminating the traditional lines found in bifocals and trifocals to offer a clean, modern look along with functional benefits. Whether you choose Clr2Drk or Clr2Drk+Blue, you can enjoy the convenience of light-adaptive lenses combined with the versatility of progressive technology. -
What types of bifocal lenses do you offer with Clr2Drk and Clr2Drk+Blue?
We offer two types of bifocal lenses: traditional bifocals with a visible line and digital lineless bifocals. With Clr2Drk, you can opt for traditional bifocals, which feature a distinct line separating the different lens powers. For a more seamless appearance, our Clr2Drk+Blue lenses are available with digital lineless bifocals. These lineless bifocals provide the benefits of bifocals—distinct viewing areas for distance and near vision—without the visible line, offering an invisible transition that many find more aesthetically pleasing. It’s important to note that while lineless bifocals offer a cleaner look, they are not progressive lenses; they still provide two distinct zones for viewing but without the visible demarcation. -
I have a high prescription; can I still buy Clr2Drk lenses?
Absolutely! We understand that those with high prescriptions need lenses that are not only effective but also comfortable. We offer Clr2Drk lenses in a variety of thin and light high index options, designed to ensure that even those with strong prescriptions can enjoy the benefits of light-adaptive lenses. These high index lenses are thinner and lighter, reducing the weight of your glasses and providing a more comfortable fit, without sacrificing style or functionality. -
Do you offer Clr2Drk lenses for non-prescription readers?
Yes, you can customize your non-prescription readers with our innovative Clr2Drk and Clr2Drk+Blue lenses. Whether you're looking for basic light-adaptive functionality or enhanced blue light protection, our lenses can be fitted to non-prescription readers, providing you with the comfort and versatility you need for everyday use, all while protecting your eyes from harmful UV and blue light, all while enhancing your style.
