Basic Eyeglass Lens Options OverviewBasic Eyeglass Lens Options Overview: Take a moment to understand a few of your optic lens choices that will make a difference in both visual comfort and your ability to see clearly.

Anti-reflection and Non-glare CoatingAnti-reflective coating is applied to eyeglass lenses to reduce the amount of internal and external reflections on a lens. This increases the amount of light transmitted through the lens, which improves quality of vision. Anti-reflective coating also decreases unwanted glare and halos at nighttime. It also makes the lenses appear somewhat invisible and very thin. While everyone could benefit from an anti-reflective coating, it is especially beneficial for people with high prescriptions, people who have a decrease in vision at night, and professions in which cosmetic appearance is important.The pictures below show how effective having a non-glare anti-reflective coating is as oppose to not having the coating. The anti-reflective coating is like high definition vision, eliminating the reflections and glare at night.
