    Fast Photocromic Essilor !

    Is there someone who know which kind of photocromic lenses are the Fast Essilor?
    It seems special kinds of Transitions lenses ( I mean very fast activation and deactivation , and start of absorption near 30%-40%).

    Is it true?

    thanks a lot for later answers.

    Essilor uses Transitions Next Generation for its plastic lenses and Transitions V for its Poly and 1.67 lenses.

    Many other companies uses the same.

    Not Essilor

    The fast lenses aren't Essilor - they are LifeRx from VisionEase

    Really fast to darken but the real difference is in the way they lighten up very fast:)

    SignetArmorlite has been touting the rapid darkening and fading of their Kodak Instashades line of photochromic lenses. SV, PALs, 1.56, 1.6 and poly, I believe.
