Coated Lens
Can I add lens coat to my glasses now?
I bought my eyeglasses long time ago but I just discover lens coating. I want to add a particular one to my eyeglasses but I don’t even know if its possible. I’m thinking its only possible to add a lens coating when you first buy the lenses. That way, the manufacturers can incorporate whatever lens coat you desire as they build the eyeglasses itself. Am I wrong here? Is it possible for them to add an anti-glare lens coat to my eyeglasses now even though I bought it months ago?
It’s rather doubtful it can be done now.
The labs won’t warranty it on lenses that aren’t brand new. Some labs won’t do it at all.
Even the slightest mark on your lenses could ruin the coating, and the lenses, so it is a big chance to take.
My lab used to coat old lenses, but stopped doing it about a year ago.
