Default Who makes the best photochromic glasses/goggles that seal out dust?

I wear contacts and need protective eyewear that filters out dust/debris, and preferably w/photochromic lenses, any recommendations?

Best is very subjective. Best for the price will be amazon. I love my Harley branded Wiley x. Worth the $120 to me.

I have some HD/Wiley glasses as well, BUT if I were to do it again I would skip dropping the extra coin for the transition/photo-chromatic option. I have pretty sensitive eyes and the transition lenses don't get quite dark enough to me.

Am I still using the glasses and loving them? Yes, but I would prefer the tint to be darker.

I have WileyX prescription riding glasses but you are going to have to try a few different styles that fit your face. You`re also going to need glasses with the foam cavity that seals against your face. I tried 3 different styles before I found a style that works for me.

I've been wearing Panoptx 7Eye "Bora" photchromatics for several years. The gaskets seal out wind and dust. https://7eye.com/
