Eyeglasses

 This eyeglass place that advertises low prices for glasses, when I tried to
order they try to tack on charges for UV coating and anti-scratch coating.

Seems to me I remember reading a long time ago that you get those coatings
will all lenses and this is just a gimmick to get  more of your money.

If not, does anyone know if these are worth the extra money or not.

I did a google search on this for this group and found nothing.

I just had my eyes tested.  The difference between 1 and 2 is not as
important as if you can read the tiny line they show you at the end.

There are plenty of other cheap glasses sites which dont do that.


will all lenses

That is just plain wrong.


Nope, they are desirable but optional.

Certainly with cheap glasses, you can make a case for not bothering with either.


That varys with how you treat your glasses with the anti scratch coating.
If you are very careful with them, and always wash the lenses with cold
water before cleaning them, there is no point in the anti scratch coating.

On the other hand, you can certainly make a case for an anti scratch
coating so you dont have to wash the lenses before cleaning them.

The UV coating obviously is useless if they are only reading glasses etc.
