Increased visual field area with antireflective coated lenses in the presence of glare.
Visual fields were charted with the Goldmann perimeter for five subjects wearing corrective spectacles with noncoated lenses and then lenses with antireflective coatings of mmagnesium fluoride in both the absence and the presence of a source of glare (back-scattered reflection from the posterior surface of their lenses). There was a greater reduction in temporal isopters than nasal isopters in the presence of glare with both types of lenses, but the coated lenses were superior to the noncoated lenses in reducing the effect of glare on the visual field area.
