To give you a little background, Transitions is a brand of photochromic lenses. Photochromic lenses change from clear to sunglasses when exposed to US light. Transitions has several classes of photochromic lenses, and Xtractive is their line that gets the absolute darkest. They are especially helpful for those who drive a lot as they do get darker behind a car windshield (these have inherent UV protection) than the Gen 8 line or what many people will refer to as “regular transitions.”
And, not only do these lenses get nice and dark, they are now available in transitions xtractive new generation, a POLARIZED version, making them even better for driving. Remember my quest to find the best transitions for driving? I’ll link it here for you! But now, the game has changed and these lenses I’m about to unbox could be the best Transitions for driving yet!
I chose a larger size frame in my prescription sunglasses, for an oversized look because they will hopefully be a super functional sport sunglasses and I want them to look cool both when clear and as sunglasses. So in this exam room with no ambient UV light they do look clear. Let’s use this UV lamp to see how fast they change to dark!
Overall I am very excited about this new option from Transitions. Consider xtractive polarized lenses if: You drive a lot and the 6 o'clock glare drives you crazy!, You fish or are on the water a lot! Don’t get transitions if: You're a pilot!

I've had my xtraactive transions lenses for a week now, And I'm not noticing any difference when they turn to sunglasses or back to clear. Now today started with a lot of clouds took longer to get to sunglasses this morning, But they are great! They turn back to clear less then 5 minutes for me, And I don't even the notice the tint in the glasses,
I have two pairs of transition glasses from Firmoo. I love them!
Great demo and product detail! Love school with Dr D :-)
Nice video, but something you didn't talk about is how dark they get inside a car. As you note the windshield blocks the UV which prevents the lenses from getting as dark as they do outside. If they don't get dark enough for driving then they're not really solving the problem. I find it easier to just switch into dedicated prescription sunglasses for driving.
i believe the xtractive lenses do darken to a level 2 inside a car, which is very similar to sunglasses
What a great video. They look great on you.
One more question: My Optometrist says that Xtractive Polarized lenses are NOT available for a Progressive prescription. I have found another UA-cam video that says they ARE available for Progressives. Your thought? Thanks.
Hello Doctor! Based on your experience. Which lens get extra darker outdoors? The Xtractive New Gen or Xtractive Polarized? I am quite disappointed with the Xtractive Polarized I purchased. It doesn’t seem to get as dark as the Hoya Sensity Dark lenses I have.
Could you combine these with a flash mirror to in effect get a polarised Transistions Style Mirror?
Between the XTRActive and XTRActive Polarized, which darkens more in the car?
Hello, Always enjoy your videos. Thank You. Question: You say one might not want to get Xtractive Polarized if viewing 'Screens'. Exactly what is a screen vs laptop? I thought you had said that 'Indoors', the polarization effect does not take place. Thanks.
I noticed I couldn’t see my phone when I was outside specifically while wearing those. Thanks for clarifying!
@@EyeSchoolwithDrD Thanks. I will check this out before buying the Xtractive Polarized..
@@EyeSchoolwithDrD Are there any negatives to these indoors such as computer screens or TV? I spend time indoors working and out about 50/50.
can you function ok indoors? or is the tint too dark
Your videos are so helpful, thank you for creating and sharing! Quick question, do the Transitions XTRActive Polarized block blue light? I was told that a blue light coating is needed but another source said that these lenses already block the harmful spectrum of blue light. Also, I wear gaming glasses (no prescription) with a yellow tint and was wondering if the XTRActive can be tinted, thus making my gaming glasses all-around-glasses. Also, my work commute is 1.5-2 hours and I'd like to stop worrying where each set of glasses (driving and gaming) are. Lol.
Transitions lenses do block blue light, so no extra treatments are required!
@@EyeSchoolwithDrD awesome! Thank you very much!

They aren't polarized when not activated and don't polarize without UV, so they won't be polarized behind the wheel of a car, or in front of a screen if you aren't also being exposed to direct UV (sunlight)
This is my understanding, also, but I keep seeing videos like this saying they polarize behind a windshield. The Transitions website even says “They do not polarize in the car since the windshield blocks UV rays.” Dr., can you confirm or deny this? Thanks.
I understand they polarize using some of the light coming through.
I bought the polarized ones but I can’t tell a difference In darkness when it turns. Did they send me the wrong one?
The Transitions website says “They do not polarize in the car since the windshield blocks UV rays.” Dr., can you confirm or deny this? Thanks.
Not so dark in car = not so polarized in car.
The photochromic chemical molecules line up as the polarized filter. = not so polarized in car = not effective enough.
Doc, if you see this, please can you bring 2 Xtractive Polar lenses in your car during a full sunny day? Allow maybe 2 mins+ to guarantee full activation, then do a 90 degree polar filter check by putting those 2 lenses together. This is going to be great for your front team and patients.
I assume Transitions simply doesn’t want to waste breath to explain. They just say the polar doesn’t work in the car. Right right, the photochromic activates very little in the car when it’s not sunny.
Any drawbacks to getting this version if you work mostly in an office setting?
Same question
Do you ship Transition Xtractive Polarised to India? They aren't available here, only the normal Xtractive are. Let me know if you do.
Great video. Thanks. I have sensitive eyes. feels very painful while driving especially during the night. I am having a progressive lens now. Which lens would you recommend using?
I used 8 hours in my computer so polarized is not advisable?
When the came out? I dont see them on the Transitions website. I m referring to variable polarization newer version
Thanks for the video, I'm looking into getting these and I have the option to further coat them in a blue light filter, but have been advised it would make them not as dark in sunlight. Do you have any experience in this? And do you think it might be a little redundant to add more blue light filter if this lenses already claims to filter it out? I would be primarily needing the blue light for monitors and screens etc indoors, but I would ideally like to use my glasses out for driving or for sunny days outdoors. Thanks for any help in advance.
I would like this answered, as well. I'm surprised she didn't reply.
I see she did answer on another comment.
Great video great series.
Which lenses get darkest in high temperatures and behind windshield xtraactive Polarized versus xtra active Non-polarized? Which would you recommend?
Do the come in a choice of tint color (I.e. gray or brown)?
It looks like they are only available in grey at the moment, but they may be coming out with other colors soon
@@EyeSchoolwithDrD Thanks, my current XTRActive are gray, so that appears to be the only option. Adding the polarization is a nice feature, but I really enjoy my Drivers and use them as my basic sunglasses.
Is it also available in mirror ??
@@brianknecht3216 Are there any negatives to these indoors such as computer screens or TV? I spend time indoors working and out about 50/50.
Very interesting video, thank you very much for the information, I have a query: I do not use any measurement for my eyes, I see correctly, but I work in front of a monitor, and I want to wear glasses with a blue light filter that are extractive polarized transitions without the need for use eye measure, it is possible or necessarily have to buy those lenses with vision measure. Thank you.
Hello Dr D ....so polarized lenses are not recommended for u if looking at a computer screen all day ....
That is correct but these aren’t polarized until they’re activated. But if you have any sunlight at all coming into your workspace they could transition and become polarized which would make screen viewing more difficult
Yeah I noticed my sunglasses tht are polarized when am watching a 4k TV I can't see the screen wit my prescription polarized sunglasses....thanks
Question can u have polycarbonate lenses with xtractive transition
Do you need direct sunlight in the workplace for them to polarise or would just a bright workplace do it ? Thank you.

What's the price difference between xtractive an extra active polarized
Very helpful
How do you like it compared to drive wear? Just ordered a pair!
Very interesting. I never thought I would see clear polarized lenses. Unfortunately my job has me looking at big LCD screens all day long. I am sure the polarization feature would mess with this considerably. I am SOLD on the transitions though. Lens Crafters wanted $1,000 for a single pair of these polarized transitions lenses. Heck no.
The lenses don't polarized unless they are darkened by uv light from the sun.
Would you recommend an AR coating with these lenses?
Need to know
How much you paid for your one? Can i get your discount? Lol you look so pretty.
I thought I read on the Transitions website that these lenses won't polarize inside a car.
Oh interesting! I will test that out with mine and get back to you!
@@EyeSchoolwithDrD I read on their website they do. They advertised them for that specifically. I think WiJoMa maybe read that abou Transitions Vantage which are also polarized transitions but not working behind windshield.
That is true where I work we tell our customers that!
What were your results?
Sorry for this 2nd spam:
Not so dark in car = not so polarized in car.

What is confusing me is you say these are great for night driving regarding glare, but then why are they not called Drivewear?
How do these compare to Photofusion X?
Is this color grey or brown? Subscribed now
I just want one pair of glasses . I'm an outdoorsman , lots of time on the water . Can I wear these 24/7 ?
I would take them off when sleeping or taking a shower.
There’re things that you won’t be able to see properly or worse at all. Get used to cocking your head. Think clip-on so you gain full control of situations.
Hm, polarized or non ... ? They look good!
Of course they come out with these two months after I got my Xtra Active lenses... 😞
That's how it always works! Happens every time I get a new phone too!
@@EyeSchoolwithDrD Are there any negatives to these indoors such as computer screens or TV? I spend time indoors working and out about 50/50.
Just got some…😊
Which online retailer has them available already?
I’m not sure! I’m in private practice and we can get them.
I recently got pair of these and they constantly stay dark

I have extrActive glasses,but im interested in extrActive polarized, but i dont know if polarized extrActive darken behind the windshield of a car
From what I read online they should act like regular xtractive lenses when behind the windshield (so darkening to some 50% or so). Also polarization of these depends on the level of UV so they shouldn’t be basically polarized indoors and they should gradually get more and more polarized when under UV light.
There is Transitions Vantage too, which are also polarized transitions that have been around for a while, but Vantage don’t work in car. So that should be why the xtractive polarized were introduced, for car use.
