If you wear prescription glasses, you want them to provide clear vision and last as long as possible. Choosing the best lens coating (or coatings) can help you get the most out of your glasses every day.
Count on the professionals at Vision Salon Eye Care Associates to help you pick out a lens coating that fits your needs and tastes. Our optometrists take immense pride in their jobs, and they prioritize top-notch customer service and satisfaction. Here are the three main types of coatings:
UV protection glasses
An ultraviolet (UV) coating is a dye on the lens that protects your eyes from being exposed to the sun’s UV rays. Too much exposure raises your risk of eye diseases such as cataracts, eye cancers, eye growths (which can happen to people as young as teenagers), and snow blindness.
Anti-scratch glasses
If you frequently take your glasses off throughout the day, the glasses—and, therefore, the lenses—are subject to such common perils as falling on the floor, being ground up against a rough surface, or getting knocked around. A scratch-resistant coating acts as a barrier, preventing damage to the back and front of the lens.
Anti-reflective coating
An anti-reflective coating is a thin layer applied to your lenses that reduces glare by preventing reflections on both the front and back surfaces. The coating also blocks glare from computer screens and oncoming headlights while driving at night. Another benefit: People you’re talking to in person see your eyes instead of their own reflections.
