Transitions® Light Intelligent Lenses™ are lenses that adjust to different light conditions automatically.
They change from clear to dark depending on the light level. They activate when you go out in the daytime and revert to clear when you come inside. All Transitions lenses offer 100% protection from UVA and UVB rays and help filter out blue-violet light¹ from bright sunlight, even when you are indoors. By regulating the amount of light that reaches your eyes, Transitions lenses help minimise glare, for more comfortable vision.
1 Blue-violet light is between 400 and 455nm as stated by ISO TR 20772:2018.
Recommended for all glasses wearers, and available in a wide range of colours.
Transitions® GEN S™ is the fastest dark lens1 in the clear to dark photochromic category. It is fully clear indoors and darkens in seconds2 outdoors. It is ultra-responsive to light, reaching category three levels of darkness in 25 seconds3 and fading back in less than two minutes4. It also has improved long-lasting performance over time5.
Transitions® GEN S™ offers better vision quality, faster6 to ensure a continuous visual experience in harmony with varied and changing light environments. Thanks to its responsiveness to light, it provides a 39% faster vision recovery from intense bright lights7 versus clear lenses.
