So here is the question:
· What is the impact resistance of a each lens material?
· What does impact resistance mean? (I what to make sure I understand this term correctly)
· How much is each lens material’s impact resistance reduced when it undergoes: Surfacing, Edging, AR coating, Scratch coating, Hand Edging, Polishing, AR coating, Scratch Coating, Mirror Coating, Polarizing, Tinting and any other process?
If you know the answers this will be really helpful.
