An example is poly-carbonate lenses, which come with a coating on both sides as they are very easy to scratch. When surfacing the backside coating has to be removed, so we apply a new hard coating to the backside of the lens before completing an order.

Tints reduce the amount of light that hits the eye to protect them from harmful rays from the sun. There are many options when deciding which type of tints to offer your patients and this week we are taking a look at all of them!
