Are transition lenses for older people? (piefed.social)

Edit2: in my attempt to be brief, I left out most of the conversation I had with myself. I'm mostly referring to this in a fashion sense. Of course anyone can wear them, but I associate them with older people and I'm curious what younger people think of them

Edit: lenses that get darker in bright sun

So I'm over 40, I think transition lenses are for old people. I'm told younger people are wearing them now but I haven't seen many.

What's your take on it? Saying about how old you are helps

Transitions? As in the ones that go darker in the sun? My husband has had them forever. Easier than keeping a separate pair of prescription sunglasses around I guess. We’re 42 now but I’m pretty sure he had them when we met at 25.
