Transitions Optical in Canada has announced a new consumer contest in partnership with Golf Canada. The Transitions “Keep Your Eyes on the Ball” contest gives Canadian consumers the chance to enter to win over $5,000 in prizes, including a pair of Transitions lenses and a golf trip for four to Kananaskis in Alberta.

Consumers can simply enter the contest now through August 28, 2022 by completing the entry form at Kananaskismagicalexperience.com. The winner will be drawn at random from the contest participants and announced on Tuesday, August 30, 2022.

“Golf is a great match for Transitions, especially since lighting conditions vary greatly on the golf course at all times of day,” said Arnaud Rajchenbach, marketing and sales manager, Transitions Optical Canada. “Whether in direct sunlight or shadows from trees, golf fans and amateur players alike appreciate Transitions ability to seamlessly adapt their level of tint to provide the best protection for comfort and enhanced vision on and off the course. We will also be able to share this with consumers at our Transitions booth during the CP Women PGA Golf Tournament in Ottawa, where visitors will be able to try the 12 Transitions lens colours, ask all their questions about Transitions lenses, and receive customized advice on Transitions.”

The winner of the contest will receive a gift certificate to the optical clinic of their choice that offers Transitions lenses to redeem for their prize pair. The trip to Kananaskis in Alberta includes airfare for four from a major Canadian airport to the golf destination, accommodations, a rental car if necessary, and two rounds of golf.
