Pick your perfect coating! Before you make your new glasses, have a look at the benefits of the different glare coatings to choose from.

Anti-reflective coating / Anti-glare coating

· Reduced Glare:
AR coatings minimize reflections on eyeglass lenses, especially when using screens or under bright lights. This enhances visual clarity and reduces eye strain.
· Improved Aesthetics:
Lenses with AR coating appear nearly invisible, allowing others to see your eyes clearly instead of distracting reflections.
· Better Night Driving:
AR coatings enhance night vision by reducing glare from headlights and streetlights.

Blue Blocker / Blue control

· Eye Comfort:
Blue light emitted by screens can cause eye strain and fatigue. Blue light control lenses filter out a portion of this light, making prolonged screen time more comfortable.
· Digital Eye Strain:
If you spend significant time on digital devices, upgrading to blue control lenses can reduce eye strain and discomfort.
· Preserving Melatonin Production:
By limiting blue light exposure, these lenses support natural melatonin production, crucial for a healthy sleep-wake cycle. Exposure to blue light before bedtime can disrupt sleep patterns.

Glaucoma is a group of eye diseases that damage the optic nerve, which transmits visual information from the eye to the brain. It often progresses slowly over time, earning it the nickname “the silent thief of sight.” If left untreated, glaucoma can lead to vision loss. Regular eye exams are crucial for early detection, as symptoms may not be noticeable until the condition has advanced. The most common form is open-angle glaucoma, characterized by gradual vision loss and increased eye pressure due to impaired drainage. Remember to prioritize eye health and seek medical attention promptly if you experience sudden symptoms like severe headache or eye pain
