you were wearing photochromatic sunglasses then you would not have had to take off and then put on your sunglasses. The lenses would have reacted to the change in light conditions and would keep your eyes well protected throughout your journey.

A photochromatic lens will only alter in the area subjected to change in light, therefore if only one part of peripheral vision is subjected to an increase in light intensity then only that part will change. Every area of the lens is fully independent from all other areas.
