Arriving August 2024, Transitions new GEN S lenses are Transitions Optical's latest technological revolution, incorporating three core performance pillars redefining wearers’ eyewear experience.
- GEN SPEED: Ultra-responsive to light1
Fully clear indoors and darkens in seconds outdoors. When fully activated, the lens is as dark as a sun lens and fades back in around two minutes.
- GEN SMART: Effortless vision experience²,³
Offers better visual performance, faster, 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 lights vs clear lenses. During fade back, there is a 39.5% improved contrast sensitivity and 40% faster vision recovery vs Transitions GEN 8.
- GEN STYLE: Spectacular colour palette
Available in eight exclusive colours, including the brand-new colour Ruby. The range of lens colours provide endless styling possibilities for wearers to express themselves when pairing frames and lens colours.
