Activated by Transitions
Oakley’s High Definition (HDO) offers the ultimate in performance. Now get the ultimate in automatic protection, comfort and convenience: lenses that darken and lighten automatically to help you keep up with Mother Nature. They’re called Oakley Activated by Transitions and they combine Transitions photochromic technology with Oakley HDO to give you the best clarity available, plus the unrivaled impact protection and 100% UV filtering of one of the purest lens materials on earth.
They feature base colors that precisely balance light and boost contrast to improve your depth perception. When sunlight is minimal, the color diminishes but never goes away, so you can maintain peak performance in the flatlight of overcast skies. As sunlight increases, the sunglass lens color darkens to keep up.
Add it all up and its proof that there’s only one thing better than sunglasses lenses that change color: sunglass lenses that change color and give you the best visual quality, clarity and performance. Oakley Activated by Transitions.
