I had the Photo-Sun (darker than Photo-Gray) photo-chromatic prescription lenses back in high school 45+ years ago when I was taking flying lessons to combat glare... Of course in 'oversized' aviator frames. Those never got really totally clear, even in the dark, but I got used to them. People who didn't know that I was an aspiring pilot thought that I was some sort of a 'stoner'... (cue the 'Hyde' character in That '70s Show...). Nope, I was Eagle Scout, US Air Force Academy Selectee... On the straight and narrow...
