Are Transitions lenses recommended for protective sports eyewear?
First and foremost, for any contact sport activity it is essential that proper, protective eyewear is selected to reduce the risk of eye injury – especially for children, who are most prone to injury during sports activities. Recommending special sports frames with shock and impact-resistant materials such as Polycarbonate or Trivex to your active patients should be a top priority. Adding the benefits of Transitions VI lenses is a great bonus since they adjust to changing light and block 100% of harmful UV rays, providing visual comfort during outdoor activities held at various times of the day. Transitions lenses in impact-resistant materials make an excellent choice for parents on the sidelines as well.
