All Clear with the ZEISS AntiFOG Spray

A new ZEISS care spray protects eyeglass lenses effectively against fogging caused by humidity and offers many benefits over antifog coatings.

 

AALEN, 01/11/2013.
Whether using a dishwasher, cooking over a steaming hot pan, or coming out of the shower – there are many different situations in everyday life where lens fogging confronts eyeglass wearers with visibility problems. The new ZEISS antifog spray now puts an end to fogged, steamed-up lenses at long last.

No compromises in quality

"Fogged lenses are an irritating problem for which no practical solution has existed in the past – until now," says Achim Zehender, Key Account Manager at ZEISS. "Although coatings have existed for this purpose for some time now, the effect had to be activated by some additional means. Because we at ZEISS did not want to accept any compromises on the quality front, we have opted for a different approach." The new ZEISS AntiFOG spray is the attractively-priced, uncomplicated alternative to these coatings. Once the spray has been applied, the lens remains clear for up to 72 hours without in any way influencing its optical quality.

Suitable for all optical surfaces

In addition to a price that, also with ongoing use, lies under that of an equivalent coating, the ZEISS AntiFOG spray offers other benefits to the consumer. "ZEISS AntiFOG spray can be used on all optical surfaces, making it ideal for motorcycling, for example, and also for diving or ski goggles," says Zehender.

Clean and clear – all from a single source

Just a few squeezes of the spray suffice to protect the lens against fogging. "The ZEISS AntiFOG spray leaves a thin film on the lenses which ensures that the contact angle of the water droplet is 0° and that the lens therefore no longer fogs," Zehender explains. The cleaning cloth provided ensures that the protective effect is applied quickly and gently. "To ensure an optimal foundation for the ZEISS AntiFOG spray, we recommend preliminary cleaning with ZEISS lens wipes – this makes sure the lenses are clean and optimally prepared for the subsequent treatment."

The set comprising the care spray and high-quality cleaning cloth is the perfect addition to the line of ZEISS lens care products and is available from ZEISS eye care professionals.
