My sister called my last night. On hearing her voice on the other end of the telephone wire, I, to be very frank, was a little bit impatient because these days she has rung me frequently. What she wanted to tell me was very trifle matters happening in her daily life. Sometimes I did not have any interest in her experience but I could not stop her, so I had no choice but to answer the phone. She always had so many stories to tell, which almost drove me crazy. Last night, she called me again. At first she told me something pleasant or troublesome as usual. Suddenly, she changed the topic, which gave a hint of hope because I could feel there was an obvious turning point. (more eyeglasses details…)

The bifocal reading glasses can be traced back to Ben Franklin. Ben Franklin was a busy guy. He was a writer, printer, statesman, politician, scientist and inventor. Now, according to the historical story, Mr. Franklin needed to wear two pairs of glasses, one for seeing distance and one for seeing close up. Being the active and busy guy that he was, he soon grew weary of having to exchange glasses all the time in order to see. So, he decided to cut both pairs of his glasses (called spectacles back then) and joining the two halves together, each for one lens. Now, this was a primitive way of taking care of the problem and technology has come a long way with bifocal reading glasses since then, but it got the job done. (more eyeglasses details…)

Tips to Care For Eyeglass Lenses with Anti-Reflective Coating
Anti-reflective coating, or AR, has become an increasingly popular addition to prescription eyeglasses and sunglasses. These coatings provide a wide range of benefits, both cosmetic and optical. AR coating allows for more light to pass through the lens resulting in a lens that looks better due to less reflection. It actually increases visual acuity.

Modern AR-coated lenses often have a hydrophobic layer to repel water and a scratch resistant coating to increase durability.
