Actually you guys can request for the Transition lens boxes. It always have different company produce transition lens. One of them is Younger Optics. And of cos Transition lens is expensive because of the cost of making it. They do have photochromic lens in the market. You just need to find the right optical shops. Cheers mate. From Optical line  Added on August 10, 2011, 11:03 amIn order to identify whether you guys get the genuine transition lens... Bring it to outdoor with sun UV for 5 minutes, and bring it back to indoor. If the lens turn out to be all white.. its the genuine. This post has been edited by kiathoong: Aug 10 2011, 11:03 AM

If not mistaken Transition provide the coating to lens maker like Hoya, Carl Z etc. etc. Lens price much more expensive in malaysia than in USA. In USA you can get Trasition even from Walmart store. No kidding!
If you guys are from Selangor try dropping in Eye Care Eentre in SEGI's UC at Kota Damansara (there Segi offer degree in optometry). Make your spec there. You can even bring a frame that you fancy as frame selection there may not like be your liking. Made my spec in JB with Transition with 1.5 index essilor progressive lens. RM800+. Said to be best offer!.
Those who finally done their specs in Segi UC please put up a post.

Like I said, those in Selangor should try to do their spec in Segi UC.
