I am 62 and have had glasses since I was 6. I really like the coating even though it does not seem to last long but I kind of abuse my glasses anyway as I am a landscaper. Would never go back to no glare protection mainly because of the night vision driving. I have had everything through my life but I have made note of some of the types your speaking of as I am due again this next month. Just seems when I changed eye doctors it does not seem to last as long. My doctor currently has a one year warranty which I pretty much use every set and get them done again. For the price of my glasses I almost feel like they should do it anyway.
Hi Daniel, thanks for watching and commenting 🙂 Make sure you clarify when ordering your lenses whether it's a manufacturers warranty or a scratch replacement guarantee, both are very different. Anything that states a manufacturers warranty means if the lens coating starts to flake, peel even craze etc, they'll be replaced for you, but, any damage that is there too I.e bad scratches etc could be blamed for the defect etc. A scratch replacement guarantee will mean if you accidentally damage them they will replace, this still has some boundaries, for example: Essilor Sapphire coatings has a scratch replacement for 2 years, but this is for light wear and tear from every day use like cleaning and so on, they probably wouldn't cover accidental damage, a brand such as Hoya make a coating called Hoya Vision Long Life which comes with a 2 year scratch replacement guarantee, even for accidents and along as it's not intentional or due to misuse (you still need to confirm this with your supplier). This might be worth considering given your trade. Where abouts are you located? Many thanks, Colin
@@dgarreis my pleasure. Ok, there should be very clear terms with what your provider has covered (or not) hopefully they will be able to sort e everything out for you. Keep me posted and let me know how you get on! Keep safe, Colin 🙂
Is anti reflective coating necessary/noticeable for sunglasses? I don't like how these coatings tend to wear out overtime and then ruins the lenses clarity. Would rather go with no coatings at all
Just got my new pair of driving/night time glasses! I have 20/20 my entire life and still do, but wearing a pair of these very slightly corrective glasses are like the difference between 1080p and 4k 😂 I can still read very small font from very far away, but with these the lines around the letters, and everything really, are just much more crisp. I paid $90 for some anti glare film on my new glasses but haven’t noticed to much of a difference yet.. but I also haven’t seen oncoming headlights just yet. The late night driving is my main killer… thanks for the tip! Hopefully that combined with my new anti glare film will make night time driving much easier 😄 especially long distance drives for a couple hours+ 😥🤓
Nice one, sounds good! Yes some people will notice better or the same vision with the anti reflective lens coatings, always remember though it's not just a potential benefit for the wearer, the anti glare looks nicer when someone looks at you or in photos, it reduces the harsh white reflections 😁
30 years ago I replaced my glasses ussually because of wear of the frame , ussually once every 6 to 7 years.. Since I started using AR I have to replace them once every 3 year or so. These coatings are very fragile and even with best care the coating deteriorates and micro scratches appear because of it.
I have two glasses. One with nothing, covered by insurance and one paid out of pocket with all the add on available (AR, blue light, anti-scratch I think, and trans something that tanned my glasses outside in the sun). I got to say I love my paid out of pocket glass much more. I didn’t realize any issue because my first glass was the one I paid for. When my insurance cover glass came - boy, I was going crazy with all the reflections from headlights + house lights + strong light through blinds + any strong lights including sunlight. I couldn’t drive with this glass, afraid I was gonna be in an accident from the double lights reflection. The reflection or whatever it was, was additional spot/light floating around the real light source. I thought I had a defect glass until I also tried on my brother insurance cover glass. He said he didn’t notice it but then he doesn’t use his enough during the night to be bothered by it!!! But I also asked my sister who used glass for several years. Her glass were insurance covered and no add on. I was able to capture my issue in photo and show it to her. She said, her glass doesn’t do the same as mine. Now idk if my glass r defect or if seeing the double/floating light source is normal. However I can say, I love my AR. I barely notice the rainbow or have reflective light when the sunlight is behind me.
Thanks for your comment. Interesting you say this, some of my clients notice a huge difference and some not so much. It's good that you have an experience in both though 👍
I use my glasses for cooking, driving for everything. And my experience is mehhh. The coating that is suppose to last longer than year, comes off within a year. It is very stressfull. I really want to know how to take good care of my glasses with coating so that they dont scratch.
Hi Ivy, thank you for watching and for your comment. Do your lenses have this anti glare coating too? When you say for cooking, is this occasional cooking or as your job I.e for hours at a time? Many thanks Colin
@@precisionopticseyewear Hi thank you for your fast reply. Besides a my job I have a full household that includes cooking for my family and I cook twice to three times a day.
@@ivyhljones1471 ok, thank you. So if you have anti glare and a scratch resistant coating, they may well be covered against manufacturers defects if they are peeling or coming off without there being any damage or other factors to encourage it. I can't speak for all manufacturers but the ones I know of carry a 2 year manufacturers defects warranty. Your supplier would have to ascertain how and why the coating is coming off to help assi you. It could be many things from just faulty lenses, to the heat from your cooking damaging the coating etc. Anti reflective coatings do not take too kindly to heat. What do you use to clean your glasses?
I use water or a alcohol 20% based solution to clean my glasses. Also I don't use paper or that sort of things. I rather use soft cloths from the optician to clean my glasses.
Well as your using the ideal methods of cleaning then I'd recommend you seeing the company that made them for you. They will be able to have a look at them and work out if it's a manufacturing defect.
Lots of people are different, some clients feel the benefit just from wearing glasses as standard. The coatings are there to compliment the prescription
3:30 I always thought that "Anti Glare" was an useless gimmick to up sell a product without any actual benefit. My first pair of AR coated glasses was an Ebay purchase; I ordered the frames, got my Rx put in them, and I got a complimentary AR coating at no charge. It was night and day. When I put on my regular eyeglass with no AR coating. I noticed the difference, the glare, light halos, etc... I would describe it as "greasy" looking. They gave me headaches. The AR coating is life changing.
I have anti glare and it does absolutely nothing why is that? I complained about it with the eye Dr and they said I must be super sensitive to glare but why would it work at all?
There can be a few reasons, even having a dirty windscreen can be problematic. Sometimes a standard anti-reflective coating isn't enough, sometimes you need a drive coating designed specifically for that environment. Have you asked for that yet?
Is anti glare and anti reflecting glass is same or not?while taking selfies or photos the glare is occurring.so which lens is best to get clear image and to avoid glare or blue colored reflection??
Most lenses will have a green or blue reflex that has antiglare. There are lenses available that don't have as much as a harsh colour such as lenses from Shamir but it's still noticeable slightly
I find it difficult to look up whenever There's sun, I keep straining my eyes to see whenever There's too much light Do I need one of the anti reflective lens??
Hi, thanks for watching and commenting. This type of anti reflective lens coating is more designed for the aesthetics of the lenses and the reduced effect of glare on the lens surface I.e night driving etc. If you need something to help with the glare from the sun, then you will need to look at something like a polarised lens. This special type of sunglasses lens has a special filter to help reduce horizontal light glare from surfaces. Unfortunately, if the sun is out and you look up at it, nothing will really make this comfortable to be fair. Have you tried polarised lenses before?
I was cooking on a new gas grill today and it got quite hot with a lot of hot smoke in my face (also outside in the desert here where it's 100+ degrees ambient anyways) and my glasses got a ton of crazing distortions across it. Matches some pictures online I've seen with a bunch of fine lines in succession slightly bowed in direction. Looking online it seems that's from this anti reflective coating which can get crazing at high heats. Just my first grilling session with my new grill too so I'm thinking my new pair (since these are toast it seems) I might skip the coating. Though i do work on a computer all day so will I be missing out on a lot of benefits by skipping the coating?
Thanks for your comment. Yes I think you could well be correct, anti-reflective coaitngs and heat don't go hand in hand. It might be worth having an uncoated pair for work and a seperate pair for computer work maybe?
I bought my anti reflective glasses for use my phone.It reflects green colour and someone said anti reflective glasses which are made for phones reflect blue colour.Is that true? Isn't my glasses block blue rays
Hi, thanks for watching and commenting. Ok, so I think you are referring to the colour that is in the lenses, for example a green reflection or blue etc. Traditionally and normally, many people and suppliers associate the green with normal anti glare and the blue for digital blue UV protection. However this isn't always the case, as there are lenses on the market that are green reflections but will block blue light, as well as different colours that may not. Its important to have this confirmed by the place they were supplied or manufactured, as the colour alone is not a guarantee of the level of cover. Hope this helps!
Hi ! I have a question ? My first time to wear glassed . So if i already have glassed but none anti reflective lens . Can i go to the store and make it with my glassed i have ? Thank you
is it normal for me to see blue glare on my ar coating glasses while under the sun or very bright space - i can understand if someone saw my glasses surface turned to blue or green, but on my view from backside of the lens, is it normal?
Hi, thanks for your question. If you mean you can see the blue reflex of the coating on the back side/internal side of the lens then this is fine. If you can see it when wearing them then this would be better than if you didn't have it, as instead of the light blue hue you see, you would instead see a harsh bright light white reflection instead. It's very common to have an AR Coating on the inside surface of the lens, it's actually very good practice as it helps towards great clarity with the reduction of the reflections of your own eyes when wearing the lenses. Hope this helps! Colin
Hi, everyone is different. There are some great benefits to this coating but it might not relieve all problems. Eye dryness could be caused by more than one thing and I'm not aware of coaitngs giving too much relief, it can definitely be worth a try for the eye strain especially with night driving etc.
Can someone please help me? Why does anti reflection coating of lenses have to be a quarter of the wavelength of light, if both of the reflected waves (from the first surface and the second surface) will undergo 180 degree phase change? Won't they interfere constructively in any way, despite the thickness of the coating, since the reflected rays will be exactly the same as the incident wave, except they BOTH will be 'flipped upside down', having the same phase (no phase change between the two reflected waves)? Both of the reflected waves should undergo 180 degree phase change and therefore, interfere constructively.

My new specatacle's glasses are like one shown in thumbnail (one with light green color lens while other more like bluish green and purple) . Is it normal as power of both lenses are different or it's optician's mistake ?
Hi, thanks for watching and for your comment. Ok, so this is a great question. There are a couple of reasons as to why this may have happened. 1 - the optician has used two different suppliers for each lens (different lens brands and qualities use different colours anti reflective coatings) 2- one lens may have been made differently from the other from the same brand (I.e one lens may he a much higher prescription and has been made in a different way) 3- If you have had one lens replaced and your supplier hasn't noticed the colour differences or is not able to obtain the same quality one type of lens as the original Overall this something that should be pulled up during the quality control process, this is exactly what happend with my client (that's the thumbnail photo) they had their lenses supplied by someone else and this was that she was given. It shouldn't cause any issues (depending how sensitive your eyes are maybe) as they should still help prevent reflections, but if one is a better quality than the other, then you may have one with or without coatings such as UV protection etc. It will obviously be more noticeable from people look at you when wearing them. What types of lenses are they I.e long distance, reading, varifocals etc?
@@shubham09901 ok, so if one is green and the other blue, I would go back and ask them to check this out.

One Word. Crizal it is the best coating and lasts a very very long time any other coating is trash . Crizal is top quality and reflects green thats how you know or the latest Sapphire 360 which reflects blue. The coatings are coated in Teflon and extremely easy to clean my eye doctor recently tried to scam me with Claris HD/AR coatings that reflect purple and THEY ARE HORRIBLE ! i may sue them
Thanks for your comment. Glad you like your Crozal coaitngs. They are very good aren't they. Shame you were missold your other coatings. There are other great brands that are worth looking at too 😁
I started using antireflective years ago because I hate glare and reflection all over. I really noticed a difference. I’m an artist and photographer so Im picky about how things look. I think it’s an essential now.
Hi, thanks for your comment. Yes you can. This is quite common and it's quite a good idea, as the anti reflective coaitng will help when they have turned dark to help reduce reflections on the inside of the lens of your own eye and then when they are clear at night the coating will help reduce reflections from car headlights etc when driving for example 😎🤓 Hope this helps Colin
Yes some people don't like the coating, sometimes the rainbow effect or oily effect can be from where the lenses have contacted the skin and the natural oils or face creams etc can leave a rainbow residue. It's a great coating but not for everyone. Does your wife just have lenses without this coating now?
@@precisionopticseyewear - It was a (rather dry) attempt at humor based on my difficulty in understanding your accent. That aside, thanks for the video.
Some people don't feel the benefits. It also depends upon what you use your glasses for, some environments are more demanding than others. Atleast you have tried it and now you know 👍 Colin

This is quite common and it's quite a good idea, as the anti reflective coaitng will help when they have turned dark to help reduce reflections on the inside of the lens of your own eye and then when they are clear at night the coating will help reduce reflections from car headlights etc when driving for example 😎🤓
Hope this helps

My wife hate this coating on her glasses. She says she is seeing rainbows all day long.
Yes some people don't like the coating, sometimes the rainbow effect or oily effect can be from where the lenses have contacted the skin and the natural oils or face creams etc can leave a rainbow residue. It's a great coating but not for everyone. Does your wife just have lenses without this coating now?

Darn. From the title of the video I assumed that this would be presented in English.
Sorry, not too sure what you mean by this? Colin
@@precisionopticseyewear - It was a (rather dry) attempt at humor based on my difficulty in understanding your accent. That aside, thanks for the video.

Hi Tilly. Thanks for watching and for your comments. Much appreciated, I will keep this in mind for future videos!
Colin 🙂
Not worth it.
Some people don't feel the benefits. It also depends upon what you use your glasses for, some environments are more demanding than others. Atleast you have tried it and now you know 👍 Colin
