Anti-reflective coating (also called "AR coating" or "anti-glare coating") improves vision and reduces eye-strain. These benefits are due to the ability of AR coating to virtually eliminate reflections from the front and back surfaces of your eyeglass lenses. With reflections gone, more light passes through your lenses to optimize visual acuity with fewer distractions. This allows the lens to be more scratch/dust resistance than uncoated lenses.
Each Hunters HD Gold® lens is made one at a time with exceptionally accurate and error-free surface quality with a proprietary optical lens generator.
