A GIANT LEAP OF TECHNOLOGY
Transitions® GEN S™ delivers unparalleled performances with a unique vision: to embrace the synergy of speed, darkness and color without sacrificing any other performance aspect.
ADVANCED SYMBIOTIC TECHNOLOGY
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.

WEARERS CHOSE
TRANSITIONS® LENSES OVER CLEAR
1. After 7 days of trial per lens type, 86% of wearers chose to keep Transitions® GEN S™, 5% of wearers chose to keep Transitions® Signature® GEN 8™, 9% of wearers chose to keep the clear lenses. Wearers Test conducted by an external market research agency in the US in Q1, 2023 with Rx lens wearers wearing 1.67 index lenses with a premium anti-reflective coating in clear, grey Transitions® GEN S™ and grey Transitions® Signature® GEN 8™, 134 respondents.
GEN SPEED™
ULTRA-RESPONSIVE TO LIGHT
EMBRACE LIGHT IN HARMONY WITH YOUR LIFE
Transitions® GEN S™ is the fastest dark lens5* in the clear to dark photochromic category. Transitions® GEN S™ is fully clear indoors and darkens in seconds6 outdoors. It is ultra-responsive to light, reaching category 3 levels of darkness in 25 seconds4* and fading back in less than two minutes2. Transitions® GEN S™ has improved long-lasting photochromic performance.7*
Wearers agreed that Transitions® GEN S™ lenses adapted so fast
to light that they didn't notice or barely noticed the changes.8*
*Tests carried out on gray lenses. Photochromic performance may vary across colors and lens materials and is influenced by temperature and UV exposure.
2. For gray polycarbonate & CR39 lenses with a premium anti-reflective coating fading back to 70% transmission @ 23°C.
3. For gray polycarbonate & CR39 lenses fading back to 70% transmission @ 23°C, compared to the previous generation.
4. For gray polycarbonate & CR39 lenses achieving 18% transmission @ 23°C.
5. Compared to gray lenses in the clear to dark (category 3) photochromic category. Transitions® GEN S™ Gray lenses fade back faster to 70% transmission while achieving less than 14% transmission when activated at @ 23°C.
6. For polycarbonate & CR39 lenses across colors, achieving 18% transmission at 23°C.
7. For CR39 & polycarbonate gray lenses, compared to the previous generation.

GEN SMART™
EFFORTLESS VISION EXPERIENCE
ELEVATE YOUR VISUAL EXPERIENCE IN ALL LIGHT CONDITIONS
Transitions® GEN S™ offers better vision quality, faster.13 Transitions® GEN S™ ensures 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 lights11* versus clear lenses. During fadeback, there is a 39.5% improvement in contrast sensitivity12* and 40% faster vision recovery12* versus the previous generation’s. Moreover, Transitions® GEN S™ provides ultimate light protection14*, darkening outdoors, blocking 100% UVA & UVB rays, and filtering up to 32% blue-violet light in the clear state and up to 85% when activated.15
Wearers agreed their vision felt natural in all light
conditions with Transitions® GEN S™, lenses. 10*
