DALLAS--Essilor of America is launching a re-branding campaign in support of its Definity progressive lenses. It is the first major marketing campaign Essilor has undertaken for Definity since acquiring the brand last year from Johnson & Johnson.

Essilor recommends Definity progressives for presbyopes who have an active lifestyle.

 

The new look and feel of Definity will demonstrate key benefits of the lens and explain why Essilor recommends it for presbyopes who have an active lifestyle.

“The new marketing campaign, WOW: Wide Open World, speaks to the feedback we received from eye care professionals and patients when they first experience Definity lenses,” said Francois Glon, general manager, Definity. “They are amazed by the clarity, minimal distortion, wider intermediate and peripheral vision, and smooth transition that Definity offers. Most importantly, Definity provides patients with the opportunity to take on a whole new world of possibilities. Patients experience a new sense of freedom with Definity--they can enjoy activities without limitations and maintain an active lifestyle.”

Essilor will introduce new sales materials featuring the WOW logo, including sales aids for Definity and Definity Short (a short-corridor version), patient brochures, dispensing mats and reading cards. According to Essilor, the new face of Definity will focus on three color pallets: green to signify “the active, strong lifestyle Definity helps patients maintain,” berry to demonstrate “the excitement and passion of Definity,” and yellow to show “the optimism and light that the lens brings to patients.”

Both Definity and Definity Short are available in polarized versions which provide 100 percent UVA and UVB protection and are available in gray and brown.
