Parents must know – Doctors warn that all children are affected

Children are exposed to the sun's harmful rays three times more than adults, especially during the summer holidays, which also compromises the health of vision. Without eye protection since childhood, they can develop serious visual impairments throughout their lives. Essential Transitions® lenses are the ideal solution because they can replace two pairs of glasses through a single lens: vision correction and protection.

Research has shown that the eyes of younger people are more vulnerable to UV rays. Unlike the eyes of an adult, a child's lens can effectively filter out UV rays, so that the radiation reaches the retina much faster.

80% of ocular damage caused by the sun occurs during childhood and adolescence. The damage can be observed fairly quickly, so parents must take preventative measures by choosing quality eyewear for children, "says Adrian Lungu, technical director of Essilor Romania.

wearing sunglasses can be difficult. That's why it's important to choose a favorite frame template yourself. Transitions® lenses are available in bright and attractive colors, which can influence their attitude towards wearing glasses. Specialists point out that the choice of inexpensive and inexpensive glasses does not offer UV protection and may have lens defects, making vision difficult and can damage over time.

Transitions® smart ophthalmic lenses enhanced for children's eyes. They stain on the outside under the influence of UV rays, while in dark spaces they are colorless. The different colors adapt to the chosen frames, the lenses being available without prescription, only for the protection of UV rays and the damaging blue-purple light emitted by digital cameras or the sun's rays. Children are increasingly exposed to digital devices, an evolving process and Transitions® lenses adapt and are able to stop the risk of these radiations from at least 85%.

Photochromic lenses offer enhanced child protection because they protect their eyes throughout the day, regardless of their activities. Modern colors and effects make these lenses appeal to everyone, children and adults, regardless of age or lifestyle.

Transitions® lenses are found in opticians' partner optics: Transitions® Signature® VII, which offers up to 3 times more protection than standard lenses; Transitions® XTRActive®, with up to 5 times the protection of standard lenses, FLASH TO MIRROR mirror effect on Transitions® XTRActive®.
