We spent some time covering the importance of saving money yet finding a good deal on glasses recently, but I forgot to mention some of the more technical features that make this such an interesting way to acquire a quality product at a reasonable price.
The glasses at Zenni Optical have an oleophobic coating that helps repel the oils that are produced with your fingerprints. I am sure you have had glasses in the past that seem to breed finger marks. Well, this new Anti-Reflective, or AR, coating repels oils (thus the name “oleophobic”) as well as water, dust and fingerprints, yet also helping to reduce the reflection that you get from lights like when you’re driving at night or from reflections overhead. Additionally, this special coating in the glasses help to reduce the reflective light while taking photographs.
Again, you can shop around and save money with inferior products, but it is not really necessary if you are able to both find a good price on quality like the glasses from Zenni. I’ve found that companies like this that are able to utilize an online presence to help cut costs that would otherwise make for an expensive product are a great way to shop. Features like the oleophobic coating in Zenni lenses help to insure you’re going to get something that is really a quality product without the corresponding price tag.
