Mirrored Coating
Also known as ski-type coating or flash coating, mirrored coatings come in a
variety of colors to enhance your appearance, while also slightly reducing glare
from the sun or shiny surfaces. In contrast to anti-reflective coatings, which
are very clear, mirror coatings are bold statements of color. Just as the name
implies, a mirror coating is highly reflective. The mirrored sunglasses
associated with state troopers are one example of a flash coating. The
technology has advanced, however, so that today's choices include colors of the
rainbow as well as silver, gold and copper metallic mirror coatings. Hot pink,
blue — almost any color is available.
Mirror coatings are purely cosmetic: the wearer perceives no difference in vision regardless of what color the coating is. Only those looking at the person wearing the glasses can see the color of the mirror coating. Mirror coatings are generally applied over sunglass-dark lenses. Obviously, a highly reflective flash coating prevents others from seeing the eyes of the wearer.
