LENS COATINGS

Anti Glare & Scratch Resistance

LENS COATINGS

Anti Glare & Scratch Resistance

When choosing glasses, your prescription is just one part of the equation. The right lens coatings can make a huge difference in your daily comfort and visual clarity. Whether you struggle with glare while driving at night, experience eye strain from digital screens, or want to keep your lenses scratch-free, lens coatings can enhance your experience.

At 1001 Optometry, we offer a range of lens coatings designed to improve your vision and protect your prescription lenses. Here’s everything you need to know about anti-glare and scratch-resistant coatings.

SCRATCH RESISTANT LENSES

Everyday wear and tear can lead to scratches on your lenses, affecting your vision over time. Scratch-resistant coatings add a durable protective layer that helps maintain lens clarity for longer.

The Benefits of Scratch-Resistant Lenses

  • Longer Lasting Lenses: Protects against minor scratches, keeping your glasses in top condition.

  • Better Vision Quality: Scratched lenses can obscure vision; this coating helps prevent that.

  • Great for Kids & Active Lifestyles: Ideal for those who are prone to dropping or mishandling their glasses.

Visit your nearest 1001 Optometry store to learn more about scratch-resistant lenses and other protective coatings.

anti-GLARE & anti-reflective

Glare from the sun, headlights, and digital screens can cause discomfort and make it difficult to see clearly. Anti-glare (AR) or anti-reflective coatings are designed to reduce reflections, improving vision clarity and reducing eye strain.

How Do Anti-Glare Glasses Work?

Anti-glare coatings work by applying a multi-layered treatment to your lenses that minimizes the amount of light reflecting off the surface. This allows more light to pass through the lens, resulting in sharper vision with less distortion. The coating also enhances contrast and reduces glare from artificial lighting, making it particularly beneficial for night driving and prolonged screen use.

The Benefits of Anti-Glare Glasses

  • Improved Vision Clarity: Reduces reflections from light sources, making details sharper and clearer.

  • Reduced Eye Strain: Less glare means less squinting, reducing fatigue from screen use or bright lights.

  • Better Aesthetics: Anti-glare lenses look clearer in photos and video calls since they don’t reflect as much light.

OTHER COATINGS

We offer a variety of additional coatings to suit your lifestyle needs:

  • Blue Light Lenses: Designed for those who spend long hours in front of screens, blue light lenses help reduce digital eye strain, headaches, and sleep disturbances.

  • Polarised Lenses: Perfect for outdoor activities, these lenses reduce glare from reflective surfaces like water and roads, improving vision clarity in bright conditions.

  • Transition Lenses: These lenses automatically adjust from clear to tinted based on light exposure, providing UV protection and comfort in different environments.

other lens elements

Below are additional lens options that can enhance your eyewear experience:

  • Single vision or progressive lenses: Single vision lenses provide a consistent prescription throughout, ideal for distance or reading, while progressive lenses offer a seamless transition between multiple prescriptions in one lens.

  • Lens thickness: Available in different materials and index levels, thinner lenses reduce weight and bulk, providing a more comfortable fit and aesthetic appeal.

  • Transition lenses: These adaptive lenses automatically darken in sunlight and return to clear indoors, offering convenience and UV protection.
