Blink and you’ll miss it! Actually, you won’t, because the speed and effectiveness of Transitions®’ latest GEN S™ lenses have resulted in more and more glasses wearers switching to Transitions® lenses.

Transitions® GEN S™ is the latest lens from Essilor, replacing their previous GEN 8™ lens. By incorporating a new super-charged dye, GEN S™ lenses now activate within 2 seconds, adapting from clear to category 3 darkness within 25 seconds.

This instant reaction means wearers can enjoy a smooth transition from various environments with minimal visual disruption. Confident, their GEN S™ lenses are protecting their eyes from UV and UB rays in any level of light and enjoying a much faster feedback time in darker settings.

Along with visual comfort and clarity, GEN S™’s speedy transitions offer multiple eye health benefits to the wearer. Reports show a 39% increase in faster vision recovery from bright light, a 39.5% improvement in contrast sensitivity, and enhanced colour consistency.

Speaking of colours, Transitions® GEN S™ has also delivered another striking colour shade to their range with a deep Ruby. Along with the classic colour tints, Amber, Brown, Amethyst, Emerald, Graphite Green, Grey and Sapphire, Lensology can offer the latest transition lenses in customers’ favourite shades.

Adapting to evolving light and lifestyle, customers can upgrade their frames to the Transitions® GEN S™ lens with Lensology’s free postal and quick reglazing service. Complete with UV and blue light protection; GEN S™ lenses are available for single-vision lenses from £80.00 or non-prescription lenses for as little as £70.00.



A Clearer Way Forward

If you’re experiencing eye strain at work while wearing your glasses, glare issues while driving, or general vision discomfort, the next step isn’t necessarily another eye test. Most likely, your prescription hasn’t changed at all. But your lenses have.

Take the time to review your current lenses: Is there surface damage? Are they performing effectively? Do they meet your current needs? If you discover your lenses are outdated, explore Lensology’s range of lenses to find the right fit for you.
