An Anti-Reflective (A/R) Coating also referred to as an Anti-Glare coating is a microscopic thin but extremely hard layer applied to the surface of the lens through a vacuum coating technology. A/R coatings are primarily used to help with glare from fluorescent lights and other man made lights that may cause reflections on untreated lenses. Some of the most notable characteristics include the reduction of glare from car headlights, street lights, computer monitors, and other light base. Below you will find information related to the cause of reflections, composition of A/R Coatings, purpose, types of A/R coatings, tinting with A/R coatings, and the maintenance of A/R coatings
