Crizal/Crizal Alize
Why settle for regular eyeglass lenses when you can have Crizal?
Crizal lenses out-perform regular lenses by helping you to see better, feel better, and actually look better when you are wearing your glasses.

These virtually invisible lenses are extremely durable, scratch resistant, and easy to clean.  State-of-the-art, no-glare properties are combined with double-sided scratch resistance and a finish that repels water. Crizal lenses eliminate reflections that cause eyestrain and fatigue, especially from fluorescent lighting and computer screens.  They resist dirt and smudges, so you do not have to clean them as often.  With Crizal, you not only look better—you feel better, too.

Kodak Clear Coating
The proprietary top coat repels dirt, grime and fingerprints and makes cleaning a snap.  Distracting reflections are eliminated so your patients' eyes shine clear and bright.  With ordinary lenses, approzimately 10% of light is reflected away and doesn't reach the eyes.  With KODAK CleAR coating, 99% of available light reaches the eyes.  KODAK CleAR coating is rugged enough to resist cracking, crazing and peeling.  Plus, it provides durable protection against scratches.

Zeiss AR Coating
Carat Advantage is comprised of Foundation hard coating and anti-reflective Super ET coating then topped with Zeiss’ new advanced super hydrophobic coating. These three components combine to provide excellent scratch resistance, superior anti-reflective (AR) performance and enhanced durability for the lens. In addition, the new super hydrophobic layer repels dirt and water, resists smudges, is smooth to touch and cleans effortlessly.  Click here for Carat Advantage Lens Availability.

Teflon Clear Coat Lenses
Teflon Clear Coat lenses eliminate lens reflections so you can have clearer, crisper vision than is possible with oridinary lenses.  Teflon Clear Coat lenses help you look better too, because they eliminate reflections that keep people from seeing your eyes clearly in face to face interactions.  For information on Teflon Coating visit solateflon.com.

HOYA HI-VISION & SUPER HI-VISION
Hoya HI-Vision AR reduces reflections, glare and residual color well beyond other coatings you may have seen or tried resulting in clearer lenses and sharper vision.  This is made possible because HI Vision AR utilizes HOYA's revolutionary SMP process that matches the index of the coating layers to each individual lens material.
