Eyeglass Lens Coatings
Coatings are added to eyeglass lenses to improve durability, clarity, and for cosmetic effects. Coatings can be added during the lens selection process. View more info on coatings below:
*All lenses include a FREE anti-scratch coating
The anti-scratch coating is a protective coating applied to the front and back lens surfaces to protect against scratching. Our anti-scratch coatings are all premium and increase a lens' resistance to scratching, but there is no such thing as a scratch-proof lens. The best way to prevent scratching is to make sure that nothing hard (i.e. keys, pavement, etc) comes into contact with the lens surfaces.
Anti-Glare Coatings increase light transmission through the lens to improve clarity & cosmetics. All of our coatings have a hydrophobic, oleophobic top coat for easier cleaning and more durability. There are 3 types of Anti-Glare.
- Premium Anti-Glare: Applied to both sides of clear lenses.
- Sunglass Anti-Glare: Applied to the back side of dark sunglass lenses, this coating prevents light from hitting the back of the lens and reflecting into your eye.
- Blue Blocking Anti-Glare (Computer): Applied to both sides, this coating is for reducing blue light and is mainly for long term computer use. *Noticeable Blue Cosmetic Reflection
Mirror coatings darken the lens and add a 'mirror-like' finish to the front lens surface. We offer mirror coatings in silver, blue, black, green, rose, red, violet, yellow, and gold colors. They include a Sunglass (back-side) Anti-Glare coating to prevent back side reflections. Enhance your look with a mirror!
