Who We Support
Transitions Lenses Options for Different Customer Needs
Select the appropriate transitions lenses design, material, treatment and finishing from the prescription, frame, intended use and destination-market requirements.

Distance or near prescriptions with clear indoor appearance and deep-gray outdoor activation, subject to the selected product and conditions.

Distance-and-near correction in supported segment styles with light-adaptive performance reviewed alongside ADD and fitting data.

Freeform progressive correction combined with a compatible light-adaptive product and complete RX and fitting data.

For products explicitly designed and documented for vehicle activation. Windshield response and display compatibility require confirmation.

A supported lifestyle design for changing near, intermediate and outdoor tasks, reviewed against the complete order specification.

Near- and intermediate-priority design combined with a compatible light-adaptive product; working distance and outdoor use must be specified.
Clear-to-Deep-Gray Activation
The image compares clear, intermediate and strongly activated deep-gray states under controlled laboratory conditions.
Actual outdoor darkness and response depend on the specific product, UV intensity, temperature, lens age and environment.


Temperature and Fade-Back Evaluation
After activation, the lens returns toward its clear state indoors. Darkness and fade-back speed vary with the exact product, temperature, prior exposure and test method.
Ask for the applicable product specification rather than relying on one universal response time.
Windshield Compatibility Requires Confirmation
Many light-adaptive lenses rely mainly on UV, while windshields block much of it. Activation inside a vehicle can therefore be limited.
Use a driving configuration only when the exact product is documented for vehicle activation, and confirm display compatibility and intended daytime use.

- Ordering Workflow
| Material / index | Typical characteristic | Ordering relevance |
|---|---|---|
| 1.49 / 1.50 | Classic compatible option where available | General prescriptions and product availability review |
| 1.56 | Versatile light-adaptive option | General prescriptions and value-oriented programs |
| 1.60 / 1.61 | Balanced thinner option | Medium prescriptions and many modern frames |
| 1.67 | Higher-index light-adaptive option | Suitable higher prescriptions after technical review |
| 1.74 | Highest supported index where available | Availability depends on RX, diameter, design and product system |
| Activated color | Deep neutral gray shown on this page | Actual darkness depends on product, UV exposure, temperature, age and environment |
Activation depends on real conditions
Light-adaptive darkness and response vary with the exact product, ultraviolet and visible-light exposure, temperature, lens age and surrounding conditions. The deep gray shown represents a strongly activated outdoor state, not a universal fixed transmission.
Vehicle performance requires confirmation
Many light-adaptive products rely mainly on UV, while vehicle windshields block much of it. In-car activation may be limited unless the selected product is specifically designed for that environment.
Select the complete lens system
Prescription, design, index, frame, coating, activated color, fade-back priorities and destination-market requirements should be reviewed together.
- Submit the complete RX: right and left SPH, CYL, AXIS, ADD and prism/base when prescribed.
- Select the material and design: CR39, 1.56, 1.60/1.61, 1.67 or 1.74 with single vision, bifocal, progressive or another supported design.
- Provide fitting data: monocular PD, fitting height and position-of-wear data required by the design.
- Provide frame data: A, B, DBL, effective diameter, mounting type and preferably a frame trace.
- Specify the lens system: exact light-adaptive product, activated color, compatible AR option, finishing, quantity and market.
The page shows a strongly activated deep neutral-gray state. Actual darkness varies with the exact product, UV exposure, temperature, lens age and environment, so it is not a universal fixed transmission.
Response time depends on formulation, UV level, temperature, prior exposure, lens age and the measurement method. Request the specification for the selected product and test conditions.
Yes, compatible single vision, bifocal, Freeform progressive and selected lifestyle designs are available after complete RX and fitting-data review.
Many products rely mainly on UV, while windshields block much of it, so activation can be limited. Only use this claim when the exact product is specifically documented for in-car activation.
Supported systems may include 1.56, 1.60/1.61, 1.67 and 1.74. Availability depends on RX, diameter, design, coating, color and quantity.
Brand, generation, color, product codes and authenticity documentation should be confirmed for the exact supplied lens. This page does not substitute for official product documentation.
Custom Transitions Prescription Lenses for Optical Businesses
Heritage Optical Lab supplies custom light-adaptive prescription lenses for laboratories, retailers, distributors and private-label partners. Supported systems may include 1.49/1.50, 1.56, 1.60/1.61 and 1.67 with compatible single vision, bifocal and Freeform progressive designs.
Clear indoors and adaptive outdoors
Transitions products change transmission in response to activation conditions. Darkness and response are affected by the exact product, UV and visible-light exposure, temperature and lens age; exact performance and authenticity documentation must be confirmed for the selected system.
Deep neutral-gray activated appearance
The images show a strongly activated deep neutral-gray state while preserving visible detail through the lens. They illustrate the intended color direction and are not a fixed transmission guarantee for every environment.
Freeform calculation and real factory inspection
Supported designs are calculated from the submitted RX and fitting data, processed in the laboratory and checked against the order before release. External markings shown on uncut lenses are removable fitting and inspection references.
OEM, wholesale and laboratory supply
For samples, availability and quotation, send the prescription range, design, diameter, fitting and frame data, coating, finishing method, expected quantity, packaging requirements and destination market.
