Transitions® Signature® GEN 8™ Lenses

They’re totally clear indoors, and then you step outside and you instantly know what the fuss is all about with Transitions® Lenses. They darken automatically and block out 100 percent of UVA and UVB rays.

Transitions® technology reacts to sun, partial sun and indirect light, providing a superior visual experience by being more reactive to varying outdoor light conditions.

They’re more responsive to outdoor light and that means they get darker even when you’re facing away from the sun, in reflected light and at different times of day, plus they block 100 per cent of UV rays. When you go inside, they become clear like regular lenses.

They change from clear to tinted and cover almost all prescriptions, plus they also filter blue-violet light between 400 and 455nm as stated by ISO TR 20772:2018.

Almost anyone who wears prescription glasses can wear Transitions® lenses and they’ll fit virtually every frame, style, size and prescription.

Called “adaptive lenses”, Transitions Lenses are the most popular of their kind on the market and for good reason.

They offer the convenience of always matching to the amount of light, so stepping outside without your sunnies is not a problem.
