TORRANCE, CA – Eyecare professionals across the country are invited to attend two new seminars hosted by Transitions Optical and Younger Optics. The seminar tour, titled the “Younger/Transitions Technology Tour,” is coming to 12 cities from March to June. This evening event is free to attend for optical professionals.
The first seminar is called “Polarized Lenses.” The one-hour seminar will discuss the nature and harmful effects of polarized light, how to protect your eyes by using polarized lenses, and how to recognize the innovative technologies that make the most advanced and intelligently designed polarized lenses. It will also review the current state of the polarized lens market in the optical industry, and how you can increase your practice/store’s income by making polarized sunwear a more important part of your business.
The second seminar is called “Beyond Clear: Five Latest Innovations in Photochromic Lens Technology.” This course will explore the technology that makes photochromics work; traditional and emerging measurement methodologies; and new trends in photochromic lens technology and dye chemistry, which are enabling new performance characteristics like visible light activation and variable polarization.
Attending eye care professionals will receive two hours of education credits, free dinner, as well as free gifts†: Two professional vouchers to try one pair of everyday Transitions lenses, as well as one pair of polarized sunwear lenses. Attendees will be able to choose any Transitions XTRActive lens pair, or may opt to try the new Transitions Signature FT28 bifocal in Polycarbonate Composite material. For their free sunwear pair, attendees will be able to choose any NuPolar or NuPolar Gradient lens, in any style or material available.
