Research Summary

Photochromic lenses are optical lenses that undergo a reversible change in color and tint in response to exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light. These lenses contain photochromic molecules, such as silver chloride or silver halide crystals, that darken when exposed to UV radiation and gradually return to their clear state when UV light diminishes. This adaptive property makes photochromic lenses popular in eyewear, providing wearers with automatic protection against bright sunlight. When indoors or in low-light conditions, the lenses remain clear, offering optimal visibility. The ability of photochromic lenses to dynamically adjust to varying light conditions makes them a convenient and practical choice for individuals who want a single pair of glasses that can serve both indoor and outdoor purposes, eliminating the need for multiple pairs with different tints.
