Acuvue® Oasys® Transitions™ Contact Lenses
How does Acuvue
®
Oasys
®
with Transitions™ Contact Lenses look on my eye?
Acuvue Oasys with Transitions Contact Lenses were specifically designed to provide patient benefits while minimizing the change to the appearance of the eye.
Do Acuvue
®
Oasys
®
with Transitions™ Contact lenses get dark?
The lenses become darker when activated by UV and/or HEV light. While outdoors, the level of activation is always changing in response to the light, so in most situations the lens isn’t in the darkest state. These lenses also fade back to clear quickly when you come inside.
Is Acuvue Transitions™ Contact Lenses a sunglasses replacement?
ACUVUE
®
OASYS
®
with Transitions™ contact Lenses are not intended to be used as a replacement for sunglasses. While these lenses do provide UV protection to the areas they cover, other parts of the eye and surrounding areas are still exposed to UV light. Sunglasses help to protect the entire eye.
Can I use ACUVUE
®
OASYS
®
with Transitions™ contact Lenses with sunglasses?
ACUVUE
®
OASYS
®
with Transitions™ can be worn with non-prescription sunglasses.
Do ACUVUE
®
OASYS
®
with Transitions™ activate in indoor light or only outdoor UV light?
ACUVUE® OASYS
®
with Transitions™ Lenses activate in both indoor and UV light. Even when this lens appears clear, it is working and adapting to different lighting conditions.
Do ACUVUE® OASYS
®
with Transitions™ work behind the windshield?
While photochromic lenses react to UV light, car windshields block nearly 96% of UV light. It is important to note that ACUVUE
®
OASYS® with Transitions™ are not a replacement for sunglasses, but they can be worn with non-prescription sunglasses.
