5 Reasons to Start Dispensing Transitions Gen 8 Lenses

Having the opportunity to offer a wide range of lenses to your patients is perfect for growing your practice and increasing patient satisfaction. With a lens for every need, it is important that you offer the right protection for your patients' eyes as well as correction. With summer finally here and the good weather hopefully set to continue, it's time you thought about the seasonal needs of your patients.

Transitions lenses are the number one photochromic lens as recommended by eyecare professionals around the world. Transitions Gen 8 lenses are the latest generation, and we have 5 reasons why they should have a place in your practice.

Result of breakthrough technology

Transitions Gen 8 lenses are the result of an ongoing commitment to innovation and in-depth research. It is the biggest technological innovation that Transitions Optical has made since 2005, so that you and your patients can now benefit from an even better experience. 

Transitions Gen 8 lenses are the first photochromic lens with nano-composite technology, offering optimum comfort and protection alongside clear vision. This new generation of lens has a faster activation speed and are darker than previous generations, giving patients what they want and need.

Fade back to clear faster than before

One of the main objectives for Transitions Optical when developing the new generation of photochromic lenses was to ensure that the activation and fade back times were significantly improved compared with Signature VII. Transitions Gen 8 lenses have undergone improvements in the matrix and dyes to allow for even better responsiveness.

When compared to Transitions Signature VII lenses, Transitions Gen 8 fade back to clear up to 3 minutes faster, creating a much more seamless experience.

Optimal UV protection

At this time of year, UV protection is of paramount importance as overexposure to UV light can increase your patients' risk of eye disease. Blue-violet light can also be harmful, so it's key to have the right choice of lenses for patients who want to protect their eye health.

Transitions Gen 8 lenses will block 100% of UVA and UVB rays, as well as selectively filtering out blue-violet light*.

*Protection against UV and blue-violet light filtering. (Blue-violet light is between 400 and 455nm as stated by ISO TR 20772:2018).

Iconic and stylish colours

To your patients, how their lenses look will be just as important as how well they perform. Patients like to look stylish and confident in their new lenses, and with Transitions Gen 8 that is more than achievable. These lenses are available through WLC in three iconic colours, including brown, grey and green. Similarly, these lenses will also fit in most frames.

Give your patients some element of choice when it comes to their lenses so they can feel stylish and on-trend this summer, as well as protected.

Available with a prescription

Transitions Gen 8 lenses can provide so much more than protection from UV light. If your patients also require a corrective lens, you can combine the two for a lens solution that suits their needs. Transitions Gen 8 lenses can be combined with both single vision and varifocal prescriptions, so that your patients can enjoy sharp, clear vision while blocking out harmful light.

Transitions Gen 8 lenses have the ability to deliver a new frontier of performance, taking into account protection and clarity, resulting in better patient satisfaction.
