Preview GL6863 GL6868 PLAN ‘B’ EYEWEAR TRANSITIONS ACUVUE OASYS with Transitions contact lenses are expected to be commercially available from Johnson & Johnson Vision Care Inc. in the first half of 2019. Transitions Optical partnered with Johnson & Johnson Vision to make the leading light-adaptive photochromic technology available in a contact lens. ACUVUE OASYS with Transitions Light Intelligent Technology will create a new category of contact lenses and expand the photochromic category beyond eyeglass lenses. The contact lenses will provide wearers with vision correction and a dynamic photochromic filter that helps to continuously balance the amount of light entering the eye. These contact lenses quickly and seamlessly adjust from clear to dark in response to changing sunlight conditions; reducing exposure to bright light indoors and outdoors, including filtering blue light based on the level of activation and blocking UV rays. The latest release of 14 frames by Glacée includes models for the quirky and fashionable alike. A strong emphasis is placed on round eye shapes in smaller sizing for a fun, unique look. A variety of textures and press patterns are applied to these frames, as seen on the GL6863 and GL6868. Unique metal and plastic combinations create an eye-catching look that turns heads. Double brow bars are also present for a modern take on a vintage look. For more information, visit alterna- tiveeyes.com or call 1-888-399-7742.
