(PRESS RELEASE) DALLAS, TX – Essilor of America kicked off back-to-school season with the launch of the Essilor Next GEN Offer, a consumer promotion designed to enable eyecare professionals to recommend the new Transitions Signature GEN 8 lenses to more patients and increase overall practice revenue while providing patients with their best vision possible. From July 10 through Dec. 31, 2019, when patients purchase Transitions Signature GEN 8 lenses with select Essilor lenses from participating practices, they can receive a free bonus pair of clear, qualifying lenses with frame purchase.
Engineered with proprietary technology, Transitions Signature GEN 8 lenses, the best overall photochromic lenses, provide all of the benefits patients want: protection, outdoor darkness, full indoor clarity, responsiveness and long-lasting performance with improved activation and fade back speed. In fact, 9 out of 10 Transitions lens wearers are satisfied and would repurchase.
The Essilor Next GEN Offer allows patients to customize their lenses to best fit their vision needs. When they purchase Transitions Signature GEN 8 lenses with any Crizal, they can choose between Varilux X Series T, Eyezen + or Essilor Single Vision lenses to qualify for a free pair of lenses with the offer2. For their free clear pair, patients can select any Crizal on any Varilux, Eyezen+ or Essilor Single Vision lenses.
“The Essilor Next GEN Offer will provide our customers a powerful incentive to increase trial of Transitions Signature GEN 8 lenses with all patients. We have designed the offer so that patients can choose from any single vision lenses with Crizal and Transitions Signature GEN 8, to ensure that our customers have a compelling tool to win during the critical back-to-school season,” says Sherianne James, senior vice president and chief marketing officer, Essilor of America. “We don’t want our customers to miss out on the opportunity with single vision wearers and we want them to recognize that many single vision patients desire their guidance and expertise. They trust their eyecare professionals to recommend the best lenses for them and with this offer, they can feel confident to introduce them to a superior photochromic experience and our best-in-class brands at an incredible value.”
In an effort to amplify awareness of the Essilor Next GEN Offer and generate patient traffic for its eyecare provider partners, Essilor will launch an extensive consumer advertising campaign consisting of national TV, connected TV, digital advertising including video and display ads, in-store advertising, and geo-targeted and smart search ads.
“From our advertising investment to our compelling promotion, we will bring Transitions Signature GEN 8 lenses to more consumers of all ages. We are committed to delivering exceptional support to our partners to deliver the best patient experience in the market,” James adds.
