An optical transition device (20) provides a connection between two fiber structures (58, 60). The optical transition device (20) comprises a first transition body (22) having a first transition body bore (24) therethrough, a first fiber connector (26) connected to the first transition body (22) and having a first connector bore (28) therethrough, a second transition body (30) affixed to the first transition body (22) and having a second transition body bore (34) therethrough, and a second fiber connector (36) connected to the second transition body (30) and having a second connector bore (38) therethrough. The first connector bore (28), the first transition body bore (24), the second transition body bore (34), and the second connector bore (38) are coaxial along a transition axis (40). A graded-index lens (42) is disposed within the transition body bores with an optical axis of the lens (42) coincident with the transition axis (40). An axial positioning structure (46) positions the graded-index lens (42) axially along the transition axis (40).
