Transitions® XTRActive® Polarized Lenses, the Cutting-Edge Innovation Awarded at Silmo d'Or 2021

By combining deep expertise in lens technology and eyewear manufacturing, the EssilorLuxottica creates groundbreaking optical products that correct, protect and enhance the beauty of people’s eyes. It is a home to the most trusted and widely-recognized vision care and eyewear brands on the globe, including the Transitions® brand, famous for their high-performance adaptive lenses.

The latest breakthrough innovation presented by Transitions® is the Transitions® XTRActive® Polarized Lenses, probably the best ever photochromic polarized lens on the planet! The product has already won the “Silmo d’Or 2021” award in the “Vision” category. The new photochromic lenses combine the features of the XTRActive range with the additional benefit of dynamic polarization.

Transitions XTRActive Polarized lenses offer an exceptional UV protection, sharper vision, larger view and more vivid colors, enabling people everywhere to learn, to work, to express themselves to the fullest. Specifically designed for very bright light and reflective glare exposure, Transitions XTRActive Polarized lenses become extra dark and achieve a polarization efficiency of up to 90% outdoors, which is similar to polarized sunglasses. They also block 100% of UVA and UVB rays. Indoors, under lower light intensity, the lenses remain clear with a hint of protective tint. Since they are not polarized indoors, wearers can use their digital devices without having to worry about a polarized lens blocking their view of the screen, and still receive the benefit of Transitions XTRActive Polarized lenses, which protect from harsh indoors lights, filtering up to 34% of harmful blue light indoors.

So, if you are very sensitive to sunlight, or are frequently exposed to bright artificial light, Transitions® XTRActive® Polarized is designed for you. In addition to high-performance features, these new-generation lenses are a stylish solution. Along with Transitions XTRActive lenses and Transitions XTRActive lenses style mirrors, Transitions XTRActive Polarized lenses represent the widest portfolio of extra dark lenses in the photochromic category.

The worldwide distribution of Transitions XTRActive will be accelerated in the coming months. Stay in touch with EuroOptica, the authorized distributor of Transitions® adaptive lenses in NYC, to be the first to know the exact date of the event!
