I like mine. The one thing I don't like is that they don't get dark in the car. The windows block UV, preventing them from darkening.

I usually wear contacts, but I have Transitions on my glasses. Overall, I am pleased, but they don't get dark enough when driving. One thing I'll say is that Crizal is a waste of money. My wife, uncle, and I each got it, and none of us would ever get it again.
Crizal provided little noticeable benefit, and it makes them next to impossible to keep clean. |

As far as Crizal, I've been told by several people its much easier to keep clean than standard anti reflective coatings. So you are saying its just as much a pain in the ass even for crizal? |

Hmmm didn't expect that. I hate cleaning anti reflectives but they are too effective at killing reflections to leave them off.

Id just get a pair of prescript sunglasses. Everyone I know who come in from the field with those always look like doofs. The sunglasses in side thing because the take so long to transition back in office lighting.

One thing I want from my glasses is to see them last for at least 4-5 years. I do wonder if the coatings will last that long. These are going to be varilux progressives because the standard progessives I have tried suck ass. |

Agree with the car thing.
But also wore mine snow skiing. They were so dark on an overcast day I could not see moguls. Skiing by braille the whole time. |

I love my transition lenses. I have some clip-on type of sunglasses, except thy're held on with magnets, for when I'm driving. With the transitions, I never have to worry about carrying those things with me outside of the car.

I got a magnetic clip on instead of the transitions. Absolutley love them. Will never do the transitions again. Very similar to this.

They're awesome if you're going for the Joe Patorno look.
