Lenses: Coatings for all seasons

With lens coating technology developing apace in recent years, Optician rounds up some of the best to offer patients

Tokai’s No Reflection Coating (NRC) is specifically crafted to enhance the attractiveness and clarity of eyes seen through lenses across various settings like digital meetings, hybrid work environments, presentations, filmography and photography. The multiple anti-reflection technology of NRC improves visibility by reducing surface reflections dramatically when compared to Tokai’s Super Power Shield (SPS) coating.  

Furthermore, NRC offers ultra-water and oil repellent properties, ultra-scratch resistance (up to three times more than SPS), and anti-static features. Tokai says individuals wearing spectacles experience significantly higher levels of comfort and convenience. 

 

Crizal Drive from Essilor is a premium anti-reflective coating that offers clarity of vision by adapting to the light waves that the eye is sensitive to, during the day and night. The lens is said to reduce reflections when night driving, compared to a lens with a hard coat, and protects lenses from all barriers to clear vision, including scratches, smudges, water, dust and UV rays.
