FAQ

  • What Are Color-Changing Frames?

    As the name implies, color-changing frames transition from crystal clear to a vibrant color when the ambient light changes. Photochromic frames change color when you go outside and glow-in-the-dark frames change color when there's no light.

  • How Do Color-Changing Frames Work?

    Color-changing frames are made of plastic with light-sensitive elements embedded in them. Those that change color in daylight contain photochromic dyes that are triggered by the sun's UV rays. Those that glow in the dark contain phosphors that are energized by light, then glow with a radiant effect when the lights go out.

  • What Does Photochromic Mean?

    If you've heard of Transitions®, you have heard of photochromic lenses. Much like our photochromic frames, these lenses darken in the sunlight. A substance is photochromic when it changes color as it comes into contact with light at specific frequencies.

  • What Are the Benefits of Choosing Color-Changing Frames?

    Wearing glasses frames that change color in different settings is a way to express your unique style. These glasses can also be a great conversation starter. Plus, these frames give you the cost-effective advantage of wearing the latest trendy eyewear with two distinct looks for one low price.

  • How Should I Care for My Color-Changing Frames?

    Caring for your prescription glasses is both easy and important - and color-changing frames need a little special attention. Besides storing them in a protective case and cleaning them with dish soap and a soft cloth, make sure to avoid exposing your photochromic glasses frames to excessive heat, as high temperatures can destroy the photochromic dye.
