About Transitions Optical.

For nearly two decades, Transitions Optical has remained committed to advancing photochromic lens technology to provide the most convenient, comfortable protection from ultraviolet radiation and glare. Transitions Optical has developed the world’s most advanced photochromic lens technology; available in the widest selection of lens designs, materials, and products.

History: The company was formed in 1990 with about 50 employees and in partnership with one lens manufacturer. Today, Transitions Optical employs over 1200 workers worldwide and partners with over a dozen lens manufacturers to offer more than 100 lens options in the fastest growing categories of lens materials and the most popular lens designs.

Our Products: Transitions lenses are the ideal choice for your everyday eyewear because they are as good as clear lenses but better! They enhance visual quality, visual comfort, and provide convenient protection from the harmful effects of UV radiation and glare. They adjust automatically to changing light conditions—going from clear indoors to as dark as sunglasses in bright, glaring sunlight.

Healthy Sight: Working with your eyecare professional, Transitions Optical is committed to helping you achieve and preserve your healthy sight. We offer the most convenient way for you to protect your eyes from the light you can see and the light you can’t, helping to improve the quality of your vision and the long-term health and well-being of your eyes.
