My first post-so be gentle!
I recently purchased my first pair of Transitions. They also have AR, and Progressive, a combination I had on previous specs.
As I've recently retired as an Airline Pilot, I could be "adventurous" & try out the photochromatic style lense. These lenses are not satisfactory(or legal in some instances, in aviation), so I'm very interested in their performance overall. As has been mentioned in some other "posts", Transitions are not the answer in all circumstances, especially where a greater shading is required. I also note that, polarized lenses have been suggested as an alternative. They are a big no, no, in aviation because of their distortion factor, especially where the plexy glass sceens are polarized. It could also be a factor in vehicle driving.
I previously used G15 clip ons, so as to avoid the necessity to carry prescription sunnies.
It would be good if the transitions darkened to that level, not something I've yet experienced.
Indeed, if some optical scientist could come up with a solution to the problems I have had over recent years, there could be an opening/market.
