Glasses are an everyday essential for millions of people, but reflections on lenses can be distracting and even uncomfortable. Glare can reduce clarity, cause eye strain, and make tasks like driving at night more difficult. The solution? An anti-reflective (AR) coating that improves both vision and comfort.

At Anny Vision, we specialize in creating prescription lenses that not only match your lifestyle but also include advanced coatings that make your vision clearer and your glasses more comfortable to wear.

What Is Anti-Reflective Coating and Why Is It Important?

Anti-reflective (also called anti-glare) coating is a thin, transparent layer applied to eyeglass lenses. It reduces the amount of light reflecting off the surface of the lens, allowing more light to pass through. The result is sharper, clearer vision—especially in challenging light conditions.

Benefits of Anti-Reflective Coating

Clearer vision: Reduces distracting reflections.
Less eye strain: Makes it easier to focus, even after hours on screens.
Improved appearance: Lenses look nearly invisible, highlighting your eyes instead of shiny reflections.
Better night driving: Minimizes glare from headlights and streetlights.
Easier maintenance: Many AR coatings are hydrophobic and dust-resistant.

How Is Anti-Reflective Coating Applied?

Applying AR coating is a precise process that requires professional equipment:

Lens preparation – lenses are polished and cleaned thoroughly.
Coating application – multiple microscopic layers of AR material are applied.
Curing – lenses are treated in a special chamber to harden the coating.
Quality check – each lens is inspected for clarity and durability.

This is why professional application is essential. At Anny Vision, we partner with trusted optical labs to ensure your lenses are coated to the highest standards.

Can You Add AR Coating at Home?

While some sprays and DIY kits claim to provide anti-glare benefits, they are temporary at best and may even damage your lenses. For a long-lasting and reliable result, professional coating is the only option.

How to Care for AR-Coated Glasses

Use a microfiber cloth for cleaning.

Avoid harsh chemicals or alcohol-based cleaners.
Store glasses in a protective case.
Clean regularly with lens-safe solutions.

With the right care, your lenses will stay crystal-clear for years.
