Nikon has an extensive and proven history in lens coatings that spans industries as diverse and specialized as photographic equipment, high precision instrumentation and micro-computer technology. Nikon is committed to providing vision without compromise and continues to set new standards in the ophthalmic lens market.
Crafted in state-of-the-art Class 10,000 "clean-room" laboratory conditions, a condition no other manufacturer can claim, where no contaminants permeate the environment, Nikon coatings are the result of a rigorous process that ensures quality, durability, ease of maintenance and of course, unequalled optical performance.
Realizing a Clearer World
For almost a century, Nikon has made advances in the field of lens technology, and has now introduced the Nikon "See Series", the Top End Premium product line of ophthalmic lenses and coatings. Nikon SeeCoat earned its place in this category providing the best solution for lens protection.

Nikon SeeCoat: The Ultimate in Lens Protection
Nikon SeeCoat provides the world's highest level of scratch resistance, optimized transparency and twice the lens durability.
CLEAR
30% Increase of Anti-Reflection Layers
Optimized Transparency
More Natural Look
Red Hue Reduction: The red hue in the periphery of the lens is decreased by 42%, providing a much more natural look.
Optimized Transparency: Light coming from all angles is highly controlled (99% light transmission), minimizing unwanted glare and significantly enhancing lens performance.

Nikon SeeCoat improves vision by minimizing unwanted glare from fluorescent lighting, computer screens and televisions while improving tasks such as night driving.
The dream of clear vision becomes a reality.
CLEAN
Easier to Clean and Keep Clean Smudge Resistant Twice as Durable
Easier to Clean: Nikon R&D has refined the oleophobic properties by increasing the concentration of fluorine molecules, resulting in a higher-density top coat for a smoother lens surface.
Longer Lasting: This higher density allows SeeCoat's properties to last two times longer compared to conventional coatings.

By increasing the concentration of fluorine molecules, Nikon SeeCoat renders the lens surface so smooth, it repels water, oils, fingerprints and dirt effortlessly. Your life just got a lot easier!
TOUGH
2 Times More Scratch Resistant Longer Lens Durability
Ultimate Lens Protection
Increased Scratch Resistance: Nikon uses the latest nano-technologies to produce a new reinforced Hard Coat to make it more durable and scratch resistant. Nikon SeeCoat has proven to be at least 2 times more resistant to scratches than conventionally-coated lenses.
Longer Lens Durability: Nikon R&D has enhanced the molecular bonding process to provide an even greater adhesion to the lens. This reinforces the durability of the scratch coating, prolonging the life of the lens.

Nikon HCC ICE
Nikon HCC ICE is specially designed to make cleaning your lenses easier than ever. Water, facial oil, finger prints and smudges wipe away with the utmost ease.
EFFORTLESS TO CLEAN
The improved top coat makes the lens surface so slippery that water beads right off, making your lenses so much easier to clean.
LONGER LASTING
The surface of a Nikon HCC ICE lens is so smooth it ensures protection against scratches and normal wear and tear.
EASIER ON THE EYES
To reduce unwanted glare and improve performance, Nikon HCC ICE has unique transparency that provides the latest in technology with the ultimate in cosmetic appeal.
Nikon HCC
Nikon HCC is Nikon's base hydrophobic anti-reflective coating. Nikon HCC is actually a system of 3 molecularly bonded coatings in one. Nikon was the first in Canada to offer these 3 coatings on the same lens, designed specifically and systematically to adhere to each other and to the plastic lens so although others may claim to be the same, they are not! Only Nikon can give you the durability and performance associated with the Nikon brand.
