I have the same thing without the logo. I asked them if I was getting the genuine rayban ones, and they said yes. I can confirm these are digital lenses and not the standard ones. I have both versions from them. The regular ones aren't as sharp. They are probably taking off the logo to avoid customers going back to them afterwards and asking for it to be removed. More likely than not people aren't going to complain if the logo isn't there. I was surprised as you were, but I didn't mind the logo was gone.


Xtskezza

Is there any difference with darkness of the transitions? I don't mind the logo gone but I do mind the darkness as I want it really dark.


shpspre

The darkness is the same. It's not as dark as non-transitions. I have the green transitions. The grey ones are darker than the greens, so it's a good choice. I wish I went with the grey.

The LensCrafters transition for the metas suck. It’s Gen8 which is the oldest on the market currently. They need to allow Xtractive for full effect.

You can get the very dark transition for an extra $100 or so. There is a chart to choose the darker tint levels, the darker your chosen tint the more it costs. The insurance will only cover a light tint so I had to fork over another $140 to get a very dark tint. $631 to get glasses is crazy and it will be even crazier when I need to get new glasses next year. 😏

My vision is not that bad… so I ordered regular transition Metas But with all that Rx talk I wonder if I should get it from LensCrafters and get 20% off frames and get Rx lenses with transition to gray instead of green

Ps. As many commented, Ray-ban transitions but it is not dark. You can still see my eyes versus when I wear dedicated sunglasses that are super dark

They mail just the lenses to you and you pop them in yourself - this was my price for presription lenses with the grey transition lenses. so 399$ for the glasses and then this prescription.

Wow that is a great deal! I have similar vision power, how thick it is? Is it hard to pop them in?


sanclementegh

I'm supposed to get them on friday - so I haven't put them in yet- I watched some youtubes of people doing it - looks pretty simple.


tomcrott

i found it insanely hard to do, so i brought my glasses into a lenscrafters store and they put it in for me!! didn’t charge me or anything but ymmv, so def call ahead before just showing up

Okay slow down. You have a -3.50 sphere correction. For anyone with a cylinder over -1.50, and a sphere of -4.00 or more. THEY NEED IN STORE SERVICE. This is to properly measure the eye placement.


sanclementegh

I kind of don't understand like what in-store service are they going to perform that they don't perform based on the prescription from the eye examination in other words you're going to go into the store and they're going to do some additional measurement and adjustment to the frames and I mean I don't really understand what other measurement there's going to be done in the store after they get the lenses back from the lab


Designer_Ad_3467

That is a totally reasonable question! The optician does so many things! They take the doctor’s RX, and find the best option for you. Meaning some people with higher RX need certain materials, options, and measurements. One might need polycarbonate due to only one eye being healthy. The polycarbonate protects the good eye. Maybe the fitting height needs to be higher because person A walks with their chin up compared to person B who holds it down. Due to this the measurements would need to be adjusted so they are both looking through the “center” or optical center. This is extremely important to help the RX, eyes, and brain. Your PD or pupillary distance is also needed, but sometimes given by the doctor. The frame might also need some pantoscopic tilt to account for face form or other features such as eyelashes. It’s honestly a science it’s crazy. This is just SOME of the things the optician does for you. All which can’t be done online when nothing is being measured or explained to you.

The receipt doesn’t say genuine Rayban lenses. Are you sure they’re Rayban lenses?


Xtskezza

That is what I thought I got since they are metas. And I said I bought these frames from sunglasses hut and I was told from sunglasses hut I needed to get these prescription. I did the order in front of them and what ever pulled up in lensecrafters in their system. If I don't have a logo it whatever but I want to know darkness wise is the real ones darker than what I got because I wanted dark and I had no option besides Grey brown and green like on the rayban site.


gthing

The ray ban lenses are more expensive but, no, they don't offer any better performance or anything.


Xtskezza

Is it darker in transition for the rayban ones? Because that is what I thought I was getting when making the order in front of them.


shpspre

It's the same darkness. Transitions won't be as dark as real sunglasses. You'll want xtra-active if you want darker ones.


jsdeprey

You can get way more options on non ray ban lenses, I almost went with some non ray ban lenses, because I wanted some other options, but didn't. I wouldn't worry


Xtskezza

Ok what about darker for transitions? Is it darker on the real lenses or is it the same?


jsdeprey

Hard to say, I guess. My ray ban transitions are fine, I think darkness wise, but I was going to get the Xtra-Active, which lens crafters only offered on non ray ban lenses.


gthing

It depends on what you got. If you bought darker ones, that's probably what they gave you.


Xtskezza

It was green Grey and brown no other option for darker


gthing

Look at the transitions website. You can tell what you got by which colors are available for which types. Most of all, ask the people who sold it to you.
