They are recommended if you have a strong glasses prescription for myopia, hyperopia or astigmatism. Hi Index lenses usually have a number (1.6, 1.67. 1.74) which refers to the degree of refraction the lens provides. In simple terms the higher the number the thinner & more light weight the lens.

Today's modern anti-reflective coatings can virtually eliminate the reflection of light from eyeglass lenses, allowing 99.5 percent of available light to pass through the lenses and enter the eye for good vision. By eliminating reflections, AR coating also makes your eyeglass lenses look nearly invisible so people can see your eyes and facial expressions more clearly. Anti-reflective glasses also are more attractive, so you can look your best in all lighting conditions. The visual benefits of lenses with anti-reflective coating include sharper vision with less glare when driving at night and greater comfort during prolonged computer use (compared with wearing eyeglass lenses without AR coating).[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
