ZEISS PureCoat PLUS

Many lens manufacturers offer scratch-resistant or anti-reflective coatings for their products. But ZEISS goes further with its leading-edge PureCoat® PLUS lens process. PureCoat® PLUS combines advanced anti-reflective and scratch-resistant technology with an innovative anti-static element that prevents dust and dirt from sticking to the lenses. The lens surface is then sealed with a super-slick top coating that reduces water, oil, and grease, making the lenses exceptionally easy to clean.

Anti-reflective Technology

Lenses without anti-reflective technology reflect a significant amount of light. Surface reflections from lenses can distract the wearer and even interfere with vision, particularly in low-light conditions like night driving or when performing intensive visual tasks like computer use. The anti-reflective technology within the ZEISS PureCoat® PLUS process helps reduce reflections to less than 1% of the incident light — compared with 7% to 13% for uncoated lenses.

Scratch-resistant Technology

Plastic lenses help make glasses lighter and more comfortable, but they’re much more prone to scratches than glass lenses. The high scratch-resistance technology of ZEISS PureCoat® PLUS helps keep lenses from developing scratches from cleaning and normal wear and tear.

Anti-static Technology

Dirt and dust can cling to traditional untreated lenses, reducing vision quality and leading to scratches when cleaning. The premium anti-static element in ZEISS PureCoat® PLUS helps repel contaminants like dust and debris.

Hydrophobic Technology

Grease, water, and oil will more readily slide off the surface of lenses treated with this super-slick coating, so the lenses are easier to clean and stay clean longer.
