    How long do Transition lenses take to change back?

    I know they get darker in cold weather then when it is hot. Do they also take a lot longer to change back in cold weather?

    Not much longer, if any longer than in warm weather.

    We got people walk in in the middle of winter with them right dark. Within five minutes they were pretty clear.

    In HK, the weather is hot and wet, the Transition lens is not that dark, some customer after seeing the TV commercial is not quiet satisfied. Every time I have to explain to the customer about what the lens work and tell them under situation the lens can become very dark but in hot weather the lens cannot work out like commercial TV.

    I also talked to plant director of Transition Jacques Lasnet he said in the future may be the Transition lens will have a Asia version and Europe version.

    The speed of Transition lens is about the same in Asia.

    :cheers:
