 Transitions lenses - Manatee
I recently got some new glasses from an internet vendor. They are varifocals, and I have no problem with them in use, they have done a good job of dispensing.

The one disappointment is that the lenses do not darken enough in sunlight. Subjectively, about half as much as my old ones that have the same proprietary feature. This is very evident from a photo of the two pairs after exposure to sun.

Now - they have told me that I should expect this as they will only reach full performance after a number of cycles. This sounds like cobblers to me, and I can find no references to this anywhere, including the FAQs on the Transitions website.

Has anybody ever come across this excuse? I'll give it a few days but I am minded to send them back. I've already had them a fortnight.
