Being expensive, I use my progressive polarized shades for years. The last time I had Transition lenses, many years ago, they turned yellow eventually. I took a look after seeing your post about them being available in progressives, this is what I found.

 

"Most Transition lenses wear out in about three years, with a yellowish tinge forming in the lenses while clear and a noticeable reduction of the lenses' darkness in full sunlight"

 

Just something to be aware of. It may or may not pertain to what you are thinking about.

Has/does anyone use polarized progressive sunglasses and what are your thoughts ?

I have used them for years, use a pair from Zenni on line.  I've had very good luck with Zenni.  Specifically , I bought https://www.zennioptical.com/p/pure-titanium-full-rim-frame/5237?skuId=523721 and have two pair of them.  They work very well, I have gray lens.

I tired progressives and hated them.  I wear lined bifocals.  I get them from Zenni.  For sunglasses I use clip ons.

I just ordered some polarized progressive sunglasses from Wiley X. I used my frames I already had from them. Cost was $240, I caught the Fathers Day sale which lowered the cost some.

My doctor told me for years that they didn't make transition lenses in polarized so I always have had an extra set of sunglasses made just for fishing.... always hated early mornings or overcast days etc because it was not bright enough to wear the sunglasses ..... I wear my transitions the rest of the time and prefer them but now I see they started offering transitions that are polarized....I'm excited,  time to make an eye appointment.

And... mine are digital progressives.... they are nice once you get used to them.... just like getting a newer stronger prescription....have to commit.

I bought some very spendy, custom ground prescription transitions lenses for my Rudy Project sunglasses but haven't used them because they don't get nearly dark enough in bright sunlight.

I used to feel the same way but got used to them and now I prefer them.
