    Hi I bought a new pair of RayBan Wayfarer RB2140 901/58 online. Ive noticed that the sunglasses have a purple/blue tint on the inside of the lenses. Ive looked up about this online and found out that this is a backside anti-reflective coating. The thing that I have noticed about this is that when i am wearing the sunglasses you can see this purple/blue tint in the corners of my eyes and depending on what way my head is facing the sun etc.

    Is this normal to see this coating when wearing them? I find it stupid that a coating that is meant to improve clarity and glare is an actual distraction itself.

    Thanks

    I usually buy Zeiss lenses and their antireflective coating is blue. The coating Essilor use is green so maybe that although unlikely seeing as Essilor/Luxotica own Rayban
