Sunglasses are good: Anything that blocks ultraviolet light from reaching your eyes and eyelids is good. There is no evidence that the Transitions lenses are bad for you. Wear them and don't worry.

Stop worrying: There's a made-up claim that these cause people to stay outside longer and that the ultraviolet light them damages the eyesight. This is as groundless as most of the other "medical scare" claims that people spread around the internet. They do offer ultraviolet protection which is good for your eyes. The claim that these will ruin your eyes' ability to adapt naturally to light is pure bunk.
