With 9 out of 10 wearers interested in more than just vision correction from their lenses1*, Transitions® GEN S™ steps in as the new lens standard, going beyond the ordinary and offering a dynamic, fantastic and love-wear experience that aligns with the everchanging rhythm of life.
With Transitions GEN S, express yourself with endless pairing possibilities.
- Widest range on the market: 8 vibrant colors
- New addition to the portfolio: the Ruby color
- Better color consistency at all stages⁶
- Endless pairing possibilities
Transitions GEN S is available in 8 exclusive colors, including a brand-new addition: Transitions GEN S Ruby. All colors have been optimized to be true to tone at all times, offering vibrant tints regardless of the light or environment.
While being fully clear indoors, and beautifully colored outdoors, Transitions GEN S provides endless possibilities of pairing to complement any look.
Our groundbreaking technology has been developed with one ambition in mind: uncompromised performance.
- Proprietary & patented technolog
- 30 years of photochromic expertise
- 100,000 lenses tested
- 1,500 new photochromic dyes created
- 120 dedicated scientists
Transitions® GEN S™ uses advanced symbiotic technology where the dyes and matrix are specifically designed to seamlessly interact together. The new matrix architecture strikes the right balance between soft and hard spaces, facilitating dye performance while maintaining robustness. The new super-charged dyes absorb more energy, improving the kinetics inside the matrix and providing the right balance between vivid colors and seamless responsiveness.
