"And next we’re going to talk about some important lens options for your glasses. The choice though is yours, but the first one I’m really going to recommend, and it’s going to be anti-reflective coating. You can kind of notice it on my glasses; anti-reflective coating kind of diffuses light so it cuts through your lens thicker. It’s a good aesthetic feature to have on your glasses, it means when you’re taking a picture the flash isn’t going to show up on the lenses, if you have problems with night vision, glare from oncoming headlights or street lights on the wet pavement, aren’t going to distract you as much. So there is a lot of pluses to having the anti-reflective coating, so hopefully you’ll notice on my lenses that the light just cuts right through that, you can see my pupils and my eye color. If you pan over here to these glasses, you’re going to notice a lot of these lights bouncing off the, off the lenses so if you’re buying a nice set of glasses, one of the last things that you want to do is detract from them by having your, everybody’s reflection in your glasses. So I’m going to highly recommend anti-reflective coating to just about any individual, any, any lady who walks into this office. "
