Lens Coating Services
Opticom Co., Ltd. is a leading lens coating service provider. We protect your lenses so they can protect your eyes.
In general, lens coating can be divided into 4 types as follows:
- - Hard Coating (Scratch Protection)
True to its name, this type of coating adds a hard film to the surface of the lenses making them sturdy and durable for everyday use. Although it helps extending lenses lifespan and making them scratch-resistant, it’s not advised to expose them to high impact hazards.
- - Hard Multi-Coating (Anti-reflection)
Hard multi-coating incorporates both hard coating, which is done on the inside surface of the lenses, and multi coating, which is done on the outside surface of the lenses. While the benefits of hard coating are as described above, multi coating offers reduced reflection, allowing a clearer vision than lenses without a multi coat. (This can be observed by the lack of the reflection of the wearer’s eyes on the back of the lenses.) Also, multi coating helps drivers drive better by reducing glare from the lights of other cars.
- - Superhydrophobic Coating (Water Repellent)
The superhydrophobic coating is a premium form of coating. It fills tiny gaps in lens surface and ultimately smoothens the lenses. The key benefit is it makes your lenses water-, dirt- and dust-repellent. With its anti-static technology, the lenses gather dust less and produce fewer stains. Conclusively, these lenses are harder to get dirty and easier to clean.
- - Blue-Cut Coating (Blue Light Protection)
This type of coating blocks harmful blue light from digital devices such as computer screens, smartphones and tablet screens from your everyday use. Blue light contains high energy with short wavelengths that can greatly damage your eyes and cause age-related macular degeneration. Wearing blue-cut coated lenses can definitely help reducing the risks of harming your retinas. For a better protection and clearer sight, Opticom incorporates superhydrophobic with blue-cut coatings, giving the advanced premium qualities to fully protect your eyes.
