Why choose Transitions Drivewear?
Light on the road changes constantly—tunnels, tree shade, overcast skies, low sun, wet reflective asphalt. Drivewear automatically adapts to these variations while blocking polarized glare (wet roads, car bonnets, windscreens) to help you stay focused and reduce eye fatigue.
- Permanent anti-glare thanks to high-quality polarization.
- Driving-optimized photochromics that work behind the windshield.
- Enhanced contrast & detail perception to read the road faster.
- Lasting comfort on long trips and changeable days.
Note: Drivewear are not designed for night driving. For nighttime, use clear lenses with no tint.

Technology that’s built for the road
Windshield-optimized photochromics: Drivewear tints respond to both UV and part of the visible light, enabling effective activation inside the car, where UV is heavily filtered.
Smart polarization: the polarizing filter cuts horizontal glare (water, tarmac, glass) and reveals useful contrasts (road markings, textures, hazards).
Index & availability: Drivewear is available in index 1.50 only (cannot be thinned). For higher prescriptions (beyond ±4.00), our opticians will recommend better-suited alternatives.

Tints & lighting conditions
As light changes, the tint adapts to balance brightness, contrast, and comfort. Depending on intensity, you’ll perceive a green/olive hue in lower light that shifts toward a deeper amber/copper in bright sun—both optimized for reading relief and traffic lights.
- Overcast / tunnels: lighter tint to keep readability.
- Strong sun: darker tint and stronger polarization to tame glare.
- Wet roads: significant reduction of mirror-like reflections.
