Anti-reflective coating, also known as AR coating, helps you to see through your eyeglasses more easily, lets others see your eyes better and eliminates the annoying white glare spots in photos taken with a flash.

Common signs that a child has a vision problem that requires corrective eyewear include:

• Consistently sitting too close to the TV or holding a book too close

• Losing his or her place while reading

• Using a finger to follow along while reading

• Squinting

• Tilting the head to see better

• Frequent eye rubbing

Follow these tips to keep your eyeglasses in good condition:

• If you’re buying just one pair of glasses, avoid trendy frames that could go out of style quickly.

• If you’re buying glasses for a child whose prescription changes often, ask to have new lenses put in the old frames, rather than buying new frames each time.

• Choose a style with spring hinges, which allow the temples to flex slightly outward without breaking the eyeglasses.

You should get a new pair if your prescription has changed; your eye doctor will let you know.

To keep seeing clearly, see your eye doctor annually or every two years. Your doctor can tell you what schedule is right for you.
