Photochromatic Lenses are lenses that are clear indoors but darken and tint in response to sunlight. They are commonly referred to as ‘Transition Lenses’ which, like calling your Dyson the hoover, is actually a brand name.

It’s a process called Orthokeratology, hence which the clinical name for Night Lenses is Ortho-K lenses.
