Coatings
 Anti-reflection
coatings play an important practical role in our lives as they help to
eliminate annoying reflections caused by car headlights, televisions and
computer monitors. Indeed modern coating technology allows virtually all
light to be transmitted through the lens, whereas uncoated lenses
typically reflect 8-9% of all light which can make quite a difference
especially, for example when driving at night.
Anti-reflection coatings
also have a cosmetic benefit as they eliminate the distracting
reflections from the lens.
Modern anti-reflection
coatings are also more durable than ever before. They have a high
scratch resistance and are tested for prolonged exposure to heat, UV
light and sweat.
 A
smoother 'Top Coat' is also applied to the latest coatings making them
easier to clean.
