AR eye protection
The idea that perfect vision does not require glasses is quite common. But, even if your vision is 20/20, there are other factors that can permanently damage your eyes. We are going to delve into this topic to recommend the use of AR glasses.
We will tell you what they are and how they can help preserve your eye health. They are types of lenses that protect vision, without this meaning that there is any type of eye damage.
What is AR in optical matter?
AR lenses have two acronyms in their terminology that mean Anti-Glare or Anti-Reflective. These are glasses that incorporate lenses coated with layers of chemical components that offer anti-reflective properties.
Traditional lens lenses are placed inside a special chamber that applies various AR coatings composed of metal oxides. Then, he fixes them at very high temperatures to ensure their durability.
This treatment, to make anti-reflective lenses, achieves a scientific principle of physical optics that transmits a maximum of light and a minimum amount of reflection. The structure formed by multiple parallel layers is what allows the largest volume of available light waves to be absorbed without bouncing off the surface of the lens.
But what are the benefits of using AR glasses? Next, we will explain how you can protect your eyes with the use of these glasses.
What type of protection do AR glasses offer?
Since we have already given the details about what anti-glare is, we will delve into its usefulness and advantages. In short, we will mention the advantages you can get from the AR cover:
Avoid vision defects
AR lenses are not for exclusive use by people with ocular dysfunctions. In fact, anti-reflective lenses reduce the possibility of suffering from these conditions because they send more light to the retina. Thus, it avoids eye fatigue caused by the effort to focus better.
Anti electrostatic
Being in front of the screens of electronic devices creates an electrostatic charge on the lens that attracts dust particles. Anti-reflective lenses inhibit this effect created by static by blocking the propagation of this type of waves.
Repellent water
AR lenses do not trap water droplets as easily due to the metal oxides on the surface. When the liquid falls on the glass it is less noticeable to the eye.
Anti scratches
Anti-reflective lenses have an additional hardening treatment in order to prevent damage to the mica. This protects the AR coating and adds more strength.
Technological advances for AR lenses
One of the novelties in the matter are the AR blue lenses. These combine blue light blocking technology with the multi-layer design of anti-glare glasses. It is a very powerful mixture as it prevents the bluish light beams from damaging the retina at the same time as it prevents the rebound of light caused by reflection.
It is a great advance for glass design because it eliminates powerful blue light glare that causes more damage than white light reflections. There is no doubt that this type of AR lenses will reduce eye defects in the coming years.
But, the most drastic invention came from the hand of an Argentinian who created glasses without lenses. Instead of lenses, they use a glycerin liquid that changes its distribution to modify the formula according to the vision needs that arise.
