Photochromatic lenses automatically darken when exposed to UV light and fade back to clear when removed from UV light. They contain silver halide crystals (in glass lenses) or spiroindoline molecules (in plastic lenses) that cause the darkening and fading reactions. Photochromatic lenses provide visual comfort both indoors and outdoors by automatically adjusting the amount of light transmitted based on UV exposure. While they have advantages like UV protection and automatic adjustment, they also have disadvantages like slower response time and reduced effectiveness in high heat. Proper dispensing requires understanding factors that impact performance like intensity, wavelength, temperature and exposure history.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
Honest Reviews of Tim Han LMA Course Program.pptxtimhan337
Personal development courses are widely available today, with each one promising life-changing outcomes. Tim Han’s Life Mastery Achievers (LMA) Course has drawn a lot of interest.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

3. ULTRAVIOLET RAYS…
• “LIGHT” or more properly, electromagnetic radiation with a
wavelength shorter than 400 nm, is known as UV radiation.
• UV radiation can be further subdivided into four regions.
• UV A : 315 to 380 nm
• UV B : 290 to 315 nm
• UV C : 200 to 290 nm
• UV vacuum : 100 to 200 nm
6. • Phenomenon that color of material is change by light
irradiation.
• They are lenses that darken on exposure to UV radiation.
• Whether you glasses or not, eyes experience eyestrain
e.g. T.V. , Computer , reading , sunlight etc… causing
eye strain and watering.
• Photochromatic lenses can help your eyes to cope up
as they react to different light conditions during the day.
• Gives a visual comfort a whether indoors or outdoors.
7. OTHER NAME
• DAY & NIGHT
• TRANSITION
• PHOTO SUN LENSES
• PHOTO FUSION
• SUN SENSORS
• PHOTOLINE LENS
8. HISTORY…………………..
• Introduced in 1964 by Dr. WH ARMSTEAD and SD STOOKEY.
• In 1960 CORNING developed 1st glass photo chromatic lens.
• In 1980 AMERICAN OPTICAL developed 1st plastic photo chromatic
lens it’s called as photolite lens.
• They aware lenses high darken on exposure to UV or low temperature.
Dr. WH ARMSTEAD S.D. STOOKEY

11. GLASS PHOTOCHROMATIC LENSES…
• It contains microscopic crystal size about 5 nm in
diameter of “SILVER HALIDS”.
• Silver halide crystals doped with copper are mixed in
with the glass at the time of manufacture and in the
borosilicate mixture used by corning.
It can be represented as:
Ag + cu + UV Ag + Cu
+ + ++
12. HOW THE PROCCESS OF DARKENING
AND FADING OCCURS ? ? ?
• When SILVER HALIDE are exposed to UV rays or blue
light of visible spectrum breaks into silver and halogen
leading to darkening process.
• As silver is sets free it give rise to dark color.
• As halogen is held within the glass and combined with
silver on removal of UV rays the lens return back to its
original color i.e. the process of fading takes placed.
13. • Each glasses has got its own transmission range,
fading range and reaction time.
• Transmission rates indicates the maximum and
minimum transmission of UV rays and is written in
fraction.
For e.g: 80/45
Fading rate indicates the time taken to fade back to
70% of original transmission value.
14. • Reaction time is the taken to darken completely.
• Darkened and fading process depend on temparature
also.
• Best line glasses has a reflective index 1.523 and is
colorless in its inactivated stage becomes a pale
brown colour on exposure to light.
15.
16. PLASTIC PHOTOCHROMATIC LENSES…
• ESSILOR & PPG industries combines in1990 to
produce plastic photochromic lens known as
TRANSITION LENS the second generation of this lens
is now called as the TRANSITION COMFORT LENS.
• Rather than making use of silver halide this lenses
owes its darkening to the presence of SPIRO
INDOLINE MOLECULES.
17. • When activated by UV rays in sunlight the SPIRO-
INDOLINE molecules scatters absorbing sunlight and
reducing the amount of visible light generates the lens.
• When the lens is removed from sunlight the chemical
reaction reserve and the lens return to its clear states.
18. AVAILABILITY OF DIFFERENT BRANDS…
• Essilor : Transitions
• Zeiss : Photo fusion
• Corning : Sun sensors
• Rodenstock
• Vision rx : transitions
• Hoya : sun sensor
19.
20.
21. CORNING…
• Sun sensors is photo chromatic product of corning.
• Glass work have introduced photogrey which
darkened to grey tint on exposure to UV rays and
slightly pinkish tint in its inactivated stage.
• It is most sensitive to the wave length 350-360 nm.
• Corning has recently introduced a lightweight high
index plastic photo chromatic lens called as sun
sensor.
22. • It has photo chromatic material uniformly distributed
into the front surface of the lens, but has a penetration
depth that is significantly thicker than the photo
chromatic layer in transition lenses.
• This extra thick photo chromatic layer enables sun
sensors lenses to change faster and get darker than
other photochromatic lenses according to the
company.
• Sun sensors is made by HOYA also.
23.
24. Transition…
• Photo chromatic with a narrow variation in transmission
between the faded and darkened states are promoted
for the use in the city where light condition changes
quickly between outdoors and indoor.
• They does not loose their photo chromatic effect even
after 3-4 years.
• If one glass in a spectacle in a broken then the option of
changes the broken glass only and maintaining the color
between both the glasses can be possible.
25. • This lens is made by ESSILOR , VISION RX , BBGR.
• Extra dark outdoors to protect from the brightest sun,
even in the hottest condition.
• Darken behind the windshield of a car to protect eyes
from sunlight while driving.
• Helps protect from harmful blue light indoors and
outdoors.
• Designed to work with most prescriptions and frames.
• Block 100% of UVA & UVB rays.
29. PHOTO FUSION…
• The eye care innovation 2011 - PHOTO FUSION, the
ZEISS high and mid-index self-tinting lenes, react up to
20% faster than previous photo chromatic lenses by
ZEISS.
• Their darkening and clearing process is dependent on
ambient temperature and on the intensity of the UV
radiation to which they are exposed.
• The higher the intensity of the radiation and the lower
the temperature , the darker the lens and the faster the
darkening process.
30. • This means that maximum darkening is achieved in
wintry conditions in mountainous regions the lenses
become slightly less dark in summer heat.
• Maximum darkening is not possible in motor vehicles,
as the windscreen absorbs UV radiation.
• In early days photo chromatic product of Zeiss is
TRANSITON.
31.
32. CHALANGES OF PHOTOCHROMATIC
LENSES…
• Dependen on UV.
• UV spectrum change during the day.
• Variation of UV-A present during the day.
• Amount of activating UV needed.
• Life of photochrometic substance.
• Memory.
34. • (2) Wavelength: short wavelength increases darkening,
it depends upon material.
• (3)Temparature: lower temparature, faster and deeper
the darkening.
• (4)Thickness: more the thickness, more the material,
more the darkening.
• (5)Exposure: newer lenses take time to darken.
35. ADVANTAGES…
• Photo chromatic lenses can help your eyes to cope up as they
react to different light conditions during the day.
• Good photo chromatic lenses blocks 100% of most harmful
radiation.
• Protects you from UV which can cause lost of harm to eye
specially cornea & conjunctiva.
• Gives a visual comfort whether indoor or out door.
• Photo chromic are available in single vision, bifocal and
omnifocal forms.
36. DISADVANTAGES…
• The mainly disadvantage of the photo chromatic
lenses is they do not adjust immediately.
• It could take up to two minutes for the lenses to
adequately change from light to dark or vice versa.
• Another disadvantage for some users is that they will
not darken when worn inside vehicles because
windscreen/green glass absorbs virtually 100% of UV
light.
37. • It gradually loses its darkening ability with time.
• However, if the lenses are worn no longer than about 2
years.
• The decreased darkening is not likely to be noticed by
the wearer.
39. DISPENSING TIPS…
• Photo chromatic lenses are not as effective in hot
climate.
• When temperature increase, the reaction slows.
• So, they are not recommended to replace sunglasses.
• Photo chromatic lenses do not lighten instantaneously
when going from a bright to a dim area.
40. • Photo chromatic do not always return to their
maximum transmission, the additional reduction in
illumination when driving at night may prove
hazardous.
• Anti reflection coating will not reduce the range of the
photo chromatic cycles but as with any lens, will
increase the transmission in both the lightened and
darken status.
41. USEFUL KEY TO AVOID PROBLEM…
• Always make sure that the new lens is of the same
type as the same type as the old lens, i.e. , same
brand , same thickness etc.
• If the old lens has been chemtemperated have it re-
strengthened along with as the new lens.
• If the old lens has not been treated in anyway , place it
with new lens in boiling water for half an hour.
42. FEATURES…
• It darkens to comfortable sunglass in bright sunlight in
less than 1 min.
• Fades back to virtually clear tint.
• Light transmission is automatically adjusted to
brightness to sunlight.photo chromatic lenses must be
darken and faded through many cycles to achieve
48. •
Verily none can ever remain for even
a moment without performing action
