Anyone has any experience with these lenses? On paper they sound great as having one pair of glasses to carry around is troublesome enough.

Reactions (all types) don't work that well behind the windscreen of a car as the lenses need UV light to work and windscreens block most UV light travel. Also they make people look older. On a dull day you can be walking around with what looks like sunglasses on. Once you go indoors it can take a while to go clear.

BTW (Top Tip)for those who already have reactions. If your lenses are holding a residual tint (which they can do over time) put the glasses in the freezer for about 5min and this will remove the residual tint. Basically a reset button for reactions
