Coatings

Anti-Scratch. Tuff Coat, and UV (Ultra-Violet)

We offer free Anti-Scratch and UV coating.  You can upgrade that out our “Tuff Coat”  Coating if you like.  It is way more resistant to scratches and we would recommend that you get it if you are in situations that your glasses might become easily scratched (running through bushes for example)

Anti- Radiation, Anti Glare

You can also order an Anti-Radiation and an Anti-Glare coating.    The Anti-Radiation coating is primarily for people who spend a lot of time at their computer.  It is a 3-layer coating that combines UV, anti-scratch and anti-reflection coatings.  For most people the included UV and anti-scratch coating is sufficient.  There is an additional cost for the anti-radiation as the process is much more involved when applying all three.   

The issue of Anti-Glare is a personal decision.  Many people who need their glasses to drive at night find the anti-glare is very helpful as it reduces the halo effect around headlights, etc.  Some anti-glare coatings really attract smudges, but that has not been the experience with our lenses.

Water-repellant and Anti-Fog Coating

These lenses have a special coating that helps to minimize the fog that forms on your glasses when going from cold to warm – outside to inside in the winter for example.  It cannot be combined with color tints.
