At Martin Reynolds Opticians we feel the lens you choose should be backed up by a coating which makes your spectacles look good and also increases the longevity of your lenses. With Essilor lenses you have the choice of one from three:
Crizal Forte lenses with Scotchgard™
THE NEW STANDARD IN VISION CLARITY
Crizal Forte lenses with Scotchgard™ - the groundbreaking lens coating that takes scratch, dirt and reflection elimination to a new level. It provides the most advanced and enduring protection for wearers, thanks to the latest technology in Anti Reflection (AR) coatings.
A new intermediate booster layer makes Crizal Forte twice as scratch resistant as Crizal Alizé and just as tough as an AR glass coated lens.
New advanced hydrophobic (water-repellant) and anti-static Scotchgard protector technology gives Crizal Forte unequalled smudge resistance and dust repellence, achieving a new standard in vision clarity. The optimisation of anti-reflective layers reduces reflections by 30% compared to Crizal Alizé, taking visual comfort and clarity to a new level.
No Quibble Two Year Guarantee Against Scratching and Manufacturing Defects.
Essilor at Martin Reynolds Opticians is the first manufacturer in the UK to offer a guarantee against any scratches on AR coated lenses. Crizal Forte lenses with Scotchgard come with a special two year guarantee which covers scratching and manufacturing defects.
Crizal Alizé
PURE PERFORMANCE , PURE CLARITY
The Crizal Alizé coating from Martin Reynolds Opticians offers excellent all-round clarity of vision; combining incredible smudge repellence, scratch resistance and anti-reflective performance. Crizal Alizé’s advanced MAR coating fills in microscopic cracks to produce a near perfect smooth surface. This makes it 3 times more repellent and 10 times easier to clean.
Crizal Sun
UNPARALLED UV PROTECTION
Ordinary sun lenses only protect the eyes from direct sunlight going through the lens. But up to 15% of visible light and UV rays come from light reflected on the rear surface of the lens back into the eye, causing potential UV damage and visual discomfort.
Crizal Sun from Martin Reynolds Opticians is unrivalled in eliminating both UV & visible light rear surface reflection. Crizal Sun reflects 4 times less UV light from its rear surface than standard sun lenses. Combined with the protection from direct (frontal) UV exposure, this helps Crizal Sun set new standards in protection.
Smudges are highly visible on tinted lenses. For this reason we apply a superhydrophobic (water-repellant) top-coat to both sides of Crizal Sun lenses; on top of the hard coating on the front surface and the AR coating on the back. Perception tests show wearers experience 40% more visual comfort as a result of reduced glare, lenses stay smudge-free for twice as long and wipe clean in half the time.
