Transitions® GEN S™ are the fastest dark lenses⁴ in the clear to dark self-tinting category. Transitions® GEN S™ are completely clear indoors and darken in seconds⁷ outdoors. They react ultra-fast to light, reaching category 3 darkening in 25 seconds³ and lightening again in less than 2 minutes¹. Transitions® GEN S™ offer improved, long-lasting self-tinting performance⁶.
*Tests were carried out with grey lenses. Self-tinting performance is affected by temperature, UV exposure and lens material. 1. lenses made of grey polycarbonate and CR39 with anti-reflective premium coating, which change back to 70% light transmission at 23 °C. 2. for lenses made of grey polycarbonate and CR39, which switch back to 70 % light transmission at 23 °C. 3. for lenses made of grey polycarbonate and CR39 in different colours that reach 18 % light transmission at 23 °C. 4. compared to grey lenses from the clear to dark (category 3) self-tinting lens category. Grey Transitions® GEN S™ lenses return to 70 % light transmission, but achieve less than 14 % light transmission when activated at 23 °C. 5. for lenses made of polycarbonate and CR39 in various colours, which achieve 18 % light transmission at 23 °C. With grey CR39 and polycarbonate lenses compared to the previous generation. 7 Source: Test with spectacle wearers conducted by an external market research agency in the USA in Q1 2023. 133 Rx spectacle wearers wore clear or grey Transitions® GEN S™ lenses with index 1.67 and premium anti-reflective coating.
All colours have been optimised so that they are colour-accurate at all times. They are characterised by luminosity, regardless of light or surroundings. Although they are perfectly clear indoors, they shine in the most beautiful shades outdoors. Transitions® GEN S™ offer endless possibilities to combine with any look.
