What's New?
Transitions® segmented multifocal lenses are now available in polycarbonate composite material.
This means even more multifocal wearers can now enjoy the unsurpassed photochromic performance of Transitions® brand lenses.
Why Composite?
Transitions Optical, Inc. uses a proprietary process to make polycarbonate lenses photochromic. While this process works for a variety of lens geometries, it is not compatible with segmented, or flat-top lenses such as bifocals and trifocals. This lead to Younger Optics and Transitions Optical developing a polycarbonate composite lens that incorporates a thin photochromic front surface bifocal layer made of Trilogy® — resulting in a lens delivering Transitions performance in a product that is surfaced, polished, edged and dispensed just like a clear polycarbonate lens.
Now available from all laboratories.
