what's Anti-Reflective Coating for??

[Neil Eyeglasses]

I just cant understand why we still have to pay for that anti reflective coating?

Does our eyes really need that? or just fashion or to look rich? whew!

Hi Im Natalya my sister is an optometrist and she explained to me about this:

anti-reflective coating is ideal for computer use and night driving.
They work by increasing the light transmission through the lenses, providing you with the clearest, sharpest vision.
people will see your eyes through the lenses, not the light reflection!

In bad cases, you can actually see the reflection of your eye in the lens. Similar to a scratch-resistant coating, AR is made of a very hard thin film that is layered on the lens. It is made of material that has an index of refraction that is somewhere between air and glass. This causes the intensity of the light reflected from the inner surface and the light reflected from the outer surface of the film to be nearly equal. When applied in a thickness of about a quarter of light's wavelength, the two reflections from each side of the film basically cancel each other out through destructive interference, minimizing the glare you see. AR coatings are also applied to the front of prescription eyewear and some sunglasses to eliminate the "hot spot" glare that reflects off the lens

We always recommend our premium anti-reflective coating to reduce computer glare and night-driving reflections.
