Today’s lens treatments make a real difference in what you
see, and what you don’t see. Scratches, glare, ultraviolet rays—all are
potential hazards to healthy sight that can be minimized or eliminated by a lens
treatment.
A lens treatment is a special additive that either bonds
with the lens, or is built into the lens during the lens manufacturing process.
Lens treatments are available as individual additions to lenses, and are also
commonly bundled into single lens products for convenience and maximum benefit
to your eyes.
Common Lens Treatments.
Ultraviolet (UV) Protection: The UV rays
in sunlight can be harmful to the eyes. Lenses that block 100% UV help to ward
off various eye conditions and damage.
Scratch-Resistance: Scratches on lenses
are distracting, plain and simple. And they can interfere with lens performance.
Scratch-resistant treatments imbued into the lens surface toughen up the lenses
making them more durable.
Anti-reflective Treatment: For fashion,
comfort and clarity anti-reflective treatments are the way to go. They make the
lens nearly invisible, and cut glare from headlights, computer screens and harsh
lighting.
