New Transitions® VI Finished Lenses from Younger Optics Feature “Super Hydrophobic” AR Coating
(TORRANCE, CA — March 2009) Younger Optics now offers Transitions® VI finished polycarbonate lenses with “Super Hydrophobic” AR coating in single vision gray and brown. Independent tests* have shown that this Super Hydrophobic AR outperforms many of the AR coatings in use today.

This AR’s hydrophobic properties allow water droplets to easily run off the surface of the lens without stains or streaks. These hydrophobic properties also help to remove smudges, dust, dirt and fingerprints, making the lenses easy to clean and maintain. Extreme tests have shown this advanced coating is very durable, to resist scratching and peeling throughout the life of the lens.

The Super Hydrophobic AR on these finished polycarbonate lenses provides high transmission, to let more light through the lens and allow the wearer to see clearer, sharper images with the benefits of Transitions® VI Photochromic Technology. At the same time, the Super Hydrophobic AR prevents annoying reflections from coming off the wearer’s lenses, and has a pleasing, uniform reflected color.

Transitions® VI finished polycarbonate lenses with “Super Hydrophobic” AR coating are available now from Younger Optics.
