Why choose ZEISS AntiVirus Coating?
|
The global COVID-19 pandemic has drastically influenced our awareness of viruses and their consequences. We’re more focused on the presence of germs and how they spread than we’ve ever been before.
With this increased awareness, you may have heard of the term “high-touch items”. These include things we touch on a regular basis that can impact our general hygiene. Spectacle lenses are high-touch items that can potentially have viruses and bacteria on the surface. |
ZEISS AntiVirus Coating features
Good looking. Tough. Easy to clean.
These lenses offer all the benefits of our most premium lens coating - ZEISS DuraVision Platinum. The coating is deigned to feature low reflectance and the less visible blue residual reflex ZEISS is famous for. These lenses are also optimized for high scratch resistance and are easy to clean.
Better spectacle lens hygiene
DuraVision AntiVirus Platinum is an antiviral and antibacterial coating that actively inhibits 99.9% of potentially harmful viruses and bacteria on the surface of the lens, helping to improve spectacle lens hygiene.

What is the technology behind ZEISS AntiVirus Coatings?
ZEISS developed technology that transfers antimicrobial silver into an anti-reflective coating layer that can be applied to the surface of a spectacle lens. This “layer of trust” is carefully engineered to deliver a product that is safe to use, effectively killing and deactivating viruses and bacteria1:
Use of silver as antimicrobial agent
The healing properties of silver have been known for centuries and are well established in science and medicine. ZEISS developed technology to incorporate this proven approach as another feature of the premium anti-reflective coating so that viruses and bacteria that land on the lens surface are killed and inactivated. |
Vacuum deposition and material science
Through a special vacuum coating process, silver is deposited on the surface of the lens at high temperatures. ZEISS DuraVision AntiVirus Platinum UV contains embedded antimicrobial silver within the coating structure. The silver within the coating releases silver ions (Ag+). These silver ions (Ag+) deliver proven antiviral and antibacterial interaction on the lens surface. |
