Most people don’t know that an anti-reflective coating is an important component of their glasses. But an anti-reflective coating offers many benefits that people may be unaware of. It makes your glasses look better, it helps you see better and can also help with nighttime driving.
The first benefit of an anti-reflective coating is cosmetic. Anti-reflective coatings make your eyeglasses look more attractive. By reflecting the light your lenses look nearly invisible. This enhances your appearance and draws more attention to your eyes helping you make better eye contact with others. Eye cont
act is important part of everyday life and if you wear glasses without this coating others may be unable to see your eyes and have trouble reading your facial expressions.
Another benefit of an anti-reflective coating is that it can actually improve vision. These benefits are due to the ability of AR coating to virtually eliminate reflections from the front and back surfaces of your lenses. Today's modern anti-reflective coatings virtually eliminate the reflection of light from eyeglass lenses. They allow approximately 99.5 percent of available light to pass through the lenses and enter the eye for superior vision. With reflections gone, more light passes through your lenses and optimizes visual acuity.
And finally it helps with one of the most common visual complaints, problems driving at night. Anti-reflective coating reduces glare and halos around lights at night resulting in sharper vision with less glare while driving. The increased amount of light allowed through the lens is especially helpful in low-light conditions, such as when driving at night, helping drivers see more clearly.
