Difference Between the New Transitions Style Colors - Real Life Demo

In addition to the standard Transitions colors (Gray, brown, etc.), the Transitions brand recently launched 4 new style colors: Amethyst (purple), Sapphire (blue), Amber, (light brown), and Emerald (green).
Here we show how they look in real life and how they darken/lighten.
You can order them straight from us at: www.usemyframe.com

This is the clearest explanation of how Transition Generation 8 lens will look that I have seen to date. I just purchased Style Color Amber. I'm quite glad it wasn't yellow. Amethyst was quite nice too.

[@uthixo]

so do you like it? Are you using it daily?

[@Eggust]

I was worried about the color being too overpowering!! But these are actually really nice !!

[@JWolff-md3ij]

I just wanted to say thank you because I was actually thinking I got the wrong green from what I ordered because I based what I would get back off of the transitions demo on their website. Emerald is actually a very green green in that animation of the tinting process. But after using a UV flashlight on my pair and comparing it to what your Emerald looks like in the sun it's quite close despite how much thicker your uncut lense is. I can now safely drop this discussion with my optician now. But shame on Transitions to misrepresent the color on their website and not send their retail locations enough demo lenses to show customers what they're ordering.

The most helpful video on youtube about transitions! Thank you

[@user-73421]

Amethyst seems really helpful in increasing contrast.

[@stiffyBlicky]

great video, thanks a ton for putting care in this. i'm so torn between the amber and brown.

This is good to know, just got my new glasses with the sapphire lenses and I found they didn’t get as dark as I expected but it’s also not as sunny in the winter in Canada but they do take that edge off. Summer is probably when I’ll see the biggest different I suspect.

[@amandaglazier5925]

Thanks so much for this video! I am amazed they don't have some virtual try on for this on the website, i want to know what it will feel like looking out, not just how others see it!

Hi, I don't know if you stock Zeiss lenses but I'm curious to see the difference between Zeiss's Photofusion X and Transitions.

[@raphaelzamora7974]

Couldn’t really tell but which would you say blocks more light - amber or emerald?

[@wrldnel5200]

I’m about to get one today not sure which blocks out more light amethyst or Sapphire

[@Tula.]

Nice video

[@TheopticalPakistan]

Superb

[@calgarysparky]

Excellent video. Question for you, after seeing this video I am curious about the amber and amethyst in relation to using them for shooting sports. I compete in pistol competitions using a red dot sight. It looked like the amethyst really increased the contrast of the surroundings and brightened the reds up. Any feedback? Thanks!

[@ibrahim-lj7wl]

Which lens do you think is the best? zeiss-seiko-essilor-rodenstock-transitions?

[@SHOCKPROOFX]

Great video! Thank you!

[@UseMyFrame]

Glad you liked it!

[@IntegrityMeansAll]

@@UseMyFrame Question: If you chose the blue tinted Transition glasses-does that imply that they don’t protect you quite as much from blue light as the yellow-brown transition lenses? I’d truly appreciate a fast response🙏 because I do have to finally place the order today and only allowed to order new ones every 2years🙁Thank you so much in advance One last question: do you prefer these towards the “Transitions Xtractive” or/and “Transitions Xtractive Polarized” or one of the others? Thank you so much 🙏

[@UseMyFrame]

All Transitions lenses block 100% uva/b

[@IntegrityMeansAll]

@@UseMyFrame Oh I see, thank you so much for your response 🙂

[@haarun82]

​@@IntegrityMeansAllAll Transitions Gen 8 lenses offer some form of blue light protection, which is variable and dependant on their activation state.

[@alcatraz2119]

The emerald green looks really dark

[@Enemji]

What is the effect of gold flash mirror? With the blue flash mirror, the image is a yellow gradient with very high contrast.

[@supercheese905]

holy shit that’s cool. i got some amber rayban clubmasters

[@LifeOfEsteban]

I don't like how kaisers optometrist only have one kind of transition, and they don't tell you which one is applied to the lense,what kind? .. What grade they are.. Feels like their cheap transition, sun still hurts my eyes and they take forever to darken... Go somewhere else than kaiser.... I got the gray shade from them.. Or if anyone knows which transition Kaiser Perm uses on glasses id appreciate it 🙏🏼💯

[@helenalovelock1030]

Have you tried the mirror ones ?

[@raiphtheimposter]

Hi i enjoyed watching your video. I have a well known wayfarer type chunky black frame from Tom Ford fausto. should I go for traditional gray or a green? I appreciate your opinion

[@UseMyFrame]

That's a tough one because both will look great! If you want the darker of the two, then I would choose the gray, but if you want something not as common (gray is the most common), then go green! :)

[@firebrand5037]

I like the style you're wearing in the video. Can you tell me what frame style it is? Thanks

Amethyst

[@UnnecessaryPurchases]

Whoops it looks like this is the video I was looking for and thought these were gen s transitions. Since your videos are very helpful to me. Can you please do all the transitions s colors in this same video format. Take it outside to show the grey, brown, greens, purple, blue and ruby in gen s. I got the amber and im really disappointed in it compared to grey I had which was like gen 7 or gen 8 gray. The gen s take faster time when going inside but I regret getting amber as it's too light for direct sunlight and my eyes are always squinting. Please and thanks!!

[@devilsympathy1]

I have my eyes test next month and I'm thinking of getting new glasses then I've just noticed these lenses a short while ago, I really like the green and amethyst. I wouldn't have known which to choose without your video.By the way have you done a video showing how Xtractive lenses work inside a car? Thank you

[@UseMyFrame]

Haven't shown the XtrActive inside a car, but that's a great idea! 😎

@@UseMyFramewouldn’t everything look green or blue looking through the green or blue tint? 🤔

[@UseMyFrame]

@@xyz-mc5of Yes, these Transitions can be put in any glasses. As of October 2023 (when I'm answering this question), these are the newest lines from the Transitions brand. 😎

[@hruntingson]

Amber looks like it would be great for tennis/pickleball in low to mid brightness.

[@theurbanartist775]

Can you do the multiple tinting on lens (meaning more than on color tent)? I have so many frames and where I’m at in Memphis TN we don’t have many options. Also how do I contact you?

[@UseMyFrame]

Yes, we can add more than one color tint on lenses. You can reach us at: [e-mail]

[@jH-he9ke]

I have one pair with amber and I love them. My question was can you do gradient with these transition lenses? I’m assuming not since they already come coated? Would love if you could reply 😊

[@UseMyFrame]

Great question! Transitions are not available in gradients so as the lenses darken, they will darken the same from top to bottom.

[@jH-he9ke]

@@UseMyFrame thank you for the response. 👏

[@haarun82]

Shamir offers offers their Photoglamour lenses. There's two versions. A gradient tint to solid sun tint and a light solid tint to sun tint. Both are available in two grades of colour and they are based on Transitions, as both brands are owned by EssilorLuxottica.

[@sondinh1980]

I thought Neil put a wrong lens color (emethys) on my frame, but after this demo i can see that he did put a right lens color (sapphire)! However, the actual sapphire color is no where near the color shown on Transition promo broshure, very misleading. Actual sapphire color has no shade of blue at all but more like purple (emethyst) which I did not expect. Should of went for the Emerald instead! 😢

[@lamsung2721]

I just had the sapphires and God u are right , the color is no where near as blue as they advertise..

[@TriniPhotoFan]

Correct, it renders more grey, no one will ever detect that faint blue.

[@justjosie8963]

Sry 😓. We spend so much $$ and typical daily wear, so it kinda sucks to not love them. I'm in the middle of ordering and just changed my mind from watching this. I thought I wanted either saphire, emerald or amythst but going with the amber. It reminds me of my first expensive pr of serengetis many moons ago, and I loved the lense clarity.

[@helenalovelock1030]

Is the amethyst nice ?

[@thoma57]

I just had new prescription eyeglasses and have chosen Amber because it blends with everything. It matches style, both formal and for fashion. I was thorned between Amber and Emerald. Emerald in my opinion is good for merely fashion whereas Amber blends with fashion, style and formal events.

[@raphaelzamora7974]

I was in the same situation. Ended up ordering amber with some hexagonal raybans and I hope they come out good

[@jordycruz6661]

I was torn between amber and sapphire. Amber cause of what you said but blue is my fav color but ended up going with amber on an aviator frame

[@benthalo5201]

What coating do you recommend to get on glasses?

[@UseMyFrame]

An anti-reflective coating always improves the clarity.

[@laviolist]

I purchased Gen 8 ambers but my eyes are light sensitive and they weren't dark enough. I had to swap out for brown XTRAactives, The new ones are fine.

[@UseMyFrame]

Gray is usually the best option if you want the absolute darkest.

[@Thimo_5]

Does the brown XTRActive get dark enough in the sun? You feel protected?

[@laviolist]

@@Thimo_5 Yes. I wear them all the time and I never think about it

[@jamesryans783]

Is transition signature color amber multicoated indoors?

No, it's clear. If they appeared colored to you in this video then it might be the overhead lights, etc.

With your professional experience which color transition lense amber or emerald would you recommend for a pal gold frame for a woman?

[@UseMyFrame]

Amber is more popular, but both would look great! :)

[@samt8577]

Hi, do these lenses work as blue light coating too? Or blue light coating should be added on top of them if needed? Thank you

[@UseMyFrame]

The latest generation of Transitions (Gen 8 shown in this video) will help block some of the blue light indoors, but not as much as a separate coating. Will probably suffice for most, but those that do a lot of computer work, might opt for the separate coating.

They have changed the 4 style colors. They have put a base color to darken the lenses which changes the color of the lenses. False advertising.

So basically they are all grey ? Except for Amber which would be Brown I’m guessing?!!!

[@mauricemeador9240]

@@YouCanChangeYourWorldToday Regrettably Yes...I haven't experienced the amber, green, & brown. But please don't think you're going to get a color to match your expensive frames for a different look. It won't be a deeper darker blue or amethyst. Just Grey with a hint of either color. I'm told that the new Gen S is supposed to correct their failings while adding a new color of Ruby. I can't trust Essilor at all. Good Luck!!
