I wish I could do this - I've asked my opticians if I can have lenses without the coating, but they've said that the lenses automatically come coated and there's nothing they can do. Which seems pretty strange given that the lenses are made to order, now that I think about it. Maybe it's something about the way they order the lenses in, where there's simply no spot to ask for no coating, and they don't want to / aren't allowed to pick up the phone?
I've been wearing glasses for about 20 years. I've gotten a new pair pretty much every year. Every single time I've gotten a new pair, I was given the offer for coatings as addons, never once did a shop in the midwest or east coast just tell me "they come with coatings". Are you in the US?
