<p>i can see the reflection of the computer in my glasses. I thought AR coating blocks out all the glare.</p>

<p>no thats just the reflection of ur laptop or pc. its nothing. also, its quite dark around you so the pc just acts like a lamp and shines on ur head.</p>

<p>but i thought ar coating makes it so you can take pictures without glare. idk, thats what i found from advertisements, a comparison of one with glare and one that is crystal clear. please correct me if im wrong. im kinda angry that i spent 230 on the lenses for the best coating possible and this happens</p>

<p>No, it’s supposed to prevent glare from going through your lenses and blinding you, perhaps whilst driving, and as such preventing you from swerving into the path of an oncoming 18-wheeler.</p>

<p>There does exist something for what you’re looking for, it’s called laser eye surgery :stuck_out_tongue: I plan on getting it some day…</p>

<p>yea, its supposed to prevent glare from hitting you, but also it is also suppose to block glare from your lenses as pictured below</p>

<p>If you had that picture all along and are dead-set on the idea that you were scammed, why ask here instead of going back to your eye doctor and telling them this?</p>

<p>I’ve never bothered with the anti-reflective coating, I wonder if it is really just intended to REDUCE glare on certain types of light or something. My typical purchase is the polycarbonate lenses with an anti-scratch coating-- which, by the way, can still scratch but it does afford you some protection.</p>

<p>I believe I had an anti-reflective coating the year I had senior pictures taken, now that I think about it, and it did reduce it enough that the studio could edit what was there out without having to photoshop my eyes back in. So I guess it served its purpose there.</p>
