Multilayer Coating

Multilayer Coating is an advanced coating applied to ophthalmic lenses that combines several functional layers: a hardening layer, an anti-reflective layer, a hydrophobic layer, an oleophobic layer and an anti-static layer. It sets the modern standard for ensuring maximum clarity, protection and ease of maintenance.

Key features

The Multilayer Coating combines all the coatings needed to enhance the visual quality and durability of lenses into a single solution. Each layer performs a specific function, helping to create a lens that is more durable, clearer and easier to clean.

Components of the Multilayer Coating

  • Curing layer — Increases scratch resistance and protects the surface.
  • Anti-reflective coating — Reduces artificial reflections and improves transparency.
  • Hydrophobic layer — Repels water and reduces streaks.
  • Oleophobic coating — Reduces grease marks and residue.
  • Antistatic layer — Reduces the build-up of dust and microparticles.

Benefits of Multilayer Coating

  • Maximum transparency — Sharper vision in all lighting conditions.
  • Cleaner lenses — Fewer fingerprints, dust and residue.
  • Ease of maintenance — The smooth surface is quick to clean.
  • Longer lifespan — Complete protection against scratches and wear and tear.
  • Visual comfort — Reduction of glare from screens, LED lights and headlights.
