Anti Glare Eyeglasses

Hello all,

I recently purchased a pair of glasses that were (at the insistence of my eye doctor) coated in an anti-glare substance. I know that I need the anti-glare because of the amount of time I spend on a computer but they tend to smudge very easily. I notice myself cleaning them just about every ten minutes. It's driving me nuts.

Does anyone know of any way to make it so that they still have the anti-glare but are not smudging so often??

Thanks

Depending on where you purchased the glasses..I would check back with them and see if they offer the PLATINUM NO-GLARE...this No Glare has a Hydrophobic finish that reduces smudges. It also repels water..which makes them a lot more easier to clean. They also stay cleaner longer.

If they carry it, there may be a price difference. But if you purchased them in the last month or so, they should have some kind of exchange policy where you just pay the difference.

They only other thing I have noticed is cleaning with rubbing alcohol..the 70% strength. It tends to clean a little better than the eyeglass cleaner sold in Optical shops. Also always use 100% cotton cloth..never paper towels!

My expensive eyeglasses were made with the application of some antiglare film that is partially pealing off and bubbling. How can I remove all of it? TY!

you really cant. whatever chemical or abrasive you use to attempt, will likely damage the surface of the lens underneath. SOMEtime SOME opticals can send it off to be professionally removed, but even then they wont guarantee the condition of the lens when it returns. they'll even make you sign a waiver.

best bet is to replace the lens

My middle aged parents are facing difficulty driving at night. Do you think anti glare specs can help cut down the stunning effect of the other vehicles' headlights?

I use them and find they do help me.

The anti-glare coating on my eyeglasses is starting to come off unevenly, I guess from rubbing too hard with the cleaning cloth. It is affecting the quality of my vision. Can I remove the coating without damaging the lens? The lens is plastic, not glass

Depends on how old they are. Sometimes when you remove and anti reflective coating it "bleeds" into scratches. It's best to take them to the optician to decide. It is possible, yes ....but it might not be the best decision.

Yes you can, it will look like the surface of your lens is not smooth and clear anymore. The anti glare coating normally breaks down in patches and so you will notice that there are mottled areas on your lens or patches with look irregular when you hold the lens up under light
