    Trivex source

    This is the link to Younger trilogy product line which is their branded name for Trivex

    http://www.youngeroptics.com/products/trilogy/

    I know Hoya offers Trivex, but I am not sure of the range and Thai Optical also offers Trivex, but I am not aware of a photochomic product.

    Below is the link to PPG licenced producers.

    Hoya makes SV Trivex in transitions, and a progressive (ECP) in trivex transitions (I'm wearing mine right now); Hoya doesn't yet offer transit. in a flat top, but Younger does a Ft-28 TVX in TRX grey. I love Trivex; it's by far my mid index material of choice, and just about all I use for drilled rimless these days. Esp. great for plus rimless of all kinds. Some lab guys hate it because it smokes up their labs, but I'm sure they'll work that out. I really love that it's specific gravity is almost as low as water. A few more hundredths and the damned things'l float!
