Transition xtractive Polarized lenses are photochromic lenses that darken in response to sunlight and polarize in response to bright light to reduce glare. Adding an anti-reflective (AR) coating can be beneficial even on Transition Xtractive Polarized lenses, as it helps to further reduce glare and reflections, particularly in low-light or nighttime conditions when the lenses are clear. The AR coating enhances light transmission through the lenses, providing clearer, sharper vision.
As for the AR with blue light blocking capability, this would depend on what you need and your concerns. Blue light-blocking coatings are helpful for individuals who spend a significant amount of time looking at digital screens, as these devices emit blue light that some studies may contribute to digital eye strain and disrupt sleep cycles. If you often use digital devices where your Transition Xtractive Polarized lenses would not be darkened (i.e., indoors and not in bright sunlight), a blue light-blocking coating may still be beneficial.
However, it's worth noting that Transition Xtractive Polarized lenses, like other Transitions lenses, already block a percentage of blue light indoors and outdoors. The need for additional blue light protection would depend on your circumstances.
