Hey, gorgeous! 🌟 We’ve recently heard from a few of you asking, “Why aren’t my photochromic lenses darkening all the way?” or “Is there something wrong with my lenses?” If you’ve been wondering the same thing, don’t worry—you’re not alone, and we’re here to clear things up!


What Are Photochromic Lenses?
Before we dive into why your lenses behave differently in winter, let’s take a quick look at what photochromic lenses are all about. Photochromic lenses are specially treated eyewear that automatically adjust their tint in response to changing light conditions. When exposed to UV rays from the sun, these lenses darken to reduce glare and protect your eyes. As the UV levels decrease, such as when you go indoors or during cloudy days, the lenses gradually return to their clear state. This smart technology offers both convenience and style, making them a favorite choice for fashionable and active women like you!



Winter’s Softer Sunlight = Lighter Lens Tint
Winter brings a shift not only in temperatures but also in sunlight strength. Because photochromic lenses respond to UV light, they may not reach that full, deep tint you see during sunny summer days. It’s simply because winter sunlight is less intense and often filtered by clouds, giving your lenses less UV light to react to. So if they’re only reaching a soft tint, know that they’re still doing their job beautifully.

Does It Affect My Eye Protection?
Even with a lighter tint, your eyes are fully protected from harmful UV rays.
