Anti-reflective coatings

The best add-on for your lens — quality that exceeds industry standards.

Introduction

HOYA anti-reflective coatings: the best add-on for your lens

HOYA produces every coating under strict quality controls, carefully monitored throughout the entire manufacturing process. The result is a guaranteed, consistent level of quality that surpasses industry standards. HOYA offers a complete range of high-quality, reliable anti-reflective coatings, ensuring every client finds the solution that fits their needs.

Half a century ago, by introducing the first single-layer anti-reflective coating on mineral lenses in 1963, HOYA showed that the aesthetic and optical quality of a spectacle lens could be significantly improved.

Thanks to what was, at the time, advanced technology, lenses entered an entirely new era of innovation — the first step toward HOYA's position today as a leader in high-quality anti-reflective coatings. One such innovation is the durable application of a multilayer anti-reflective coating on synthetic lenses — a delicate process given the thinness of the coating and its sensitivity to softer surfaces.

History

50 years of innovation in anti-reflective coatings

HOYA was the first company to optimise materials and inter-layer structure using "substrate matching" technology, improving stability, transmission, scratch resistance and adhesion. These properties still define HOYA coatings today. New generations are extremely durable and resistant to scratching, dirt, grease and water.

A drive for innovation, combined with HOYA's in-house production and unwavering focus on quality, will keep HOYA at the forefront of the coatings segment for years to come.

Hi-Vision LongLife UV Control

Sunshine is pleasant and helps produce vitamin D, but UV rays can be highly damaging — linked to cataracts and other eye disorders. Children, the elderly and people who spend a lot of time outdoors are particularly vulnerable.

How the coating works

Available with the Hi-Vision LongLife anti-reflective coating, the toughest and most resistant coating on the market.
