People who wear prescription glasses: do your glasses have anti-reflective coating and do you think it's worth the extra cost?

1 Answer

Answer :

I would go for it and here is why: there may come a time when your contact lenses are lost, broken or stolen. it would be nice to know that you had your glasses as a backup and with the special coating, you could be protected from from the suns glare, while outside. i had this coating on my glasses while i was in uniform and outside all the time. the anti-reflective coating really made a difference. you may not ever have this problem, but at least it would be comforting to know its there…........just in case.
