    Transition Graphite Green

    I just got some information on the new Graphite Green. I however value experience over what transition tells me about their leneses. Has anybody had expierences with this new transition lense? I was wondering how green is it and is it actually green or is it more G-15? The picture shows it as green but I don't have a lot of faith it brochures. Most importantly do patients like it?

    My husband is wearing a pair. Nice grey/green, similar to G-15.

    Patients seem to like it. I have a pair, and I like it better than the Signature Grey. It is more like a G15, not as GREEN as the ad shows.

    I have it on a pair of glasses of mine. I like it. I mainly use it for golfing though.

    The sample I have looks exactly like the Ray Ban G-15, it's nice. It's supposed to offer more contrast like the brown lens but true color like the gray.

    I really enjoy my greens. Gets dark enough to suit me outside (--granted my other pair is Transitions 6 in brown, so take that into account.) I think the contrast lives up to marketing. Haven't sold any yet, but my clientele is usually a little on the old-fashioned side.

    I love this question! Seems I ask it every couple of weeks about something or other....

    I've had one patient get it. He loves it. He frequently goes from indoors to outdoors and back. He thinks he has a little higher contrast when he comes indoors before they've faded than he does with his older grey Transitions VI pair. The color appeared to me to be slightly to the grey side of G15.
