Not sure how accurate this info is, but read at the bottom: http://www.laramyk.com/education/dispensing/polarized-lenses.html
They recommend AR coatings on the front and back of polarized lenses. I always thought for any sunglasses, you would only want AR coatings on the back side of the lens. I read this: "Order anti-reflective coating for your sunglasses to be placed on the back of the lenses only. Anti-reflective coating only needs to be applied to the backside because sunglass lenses are dark and can appear smeared if applied to the front side. Additionally, the coating on the back side of the sunglasses will minimize the light that enters from behind you." Does anybody else have any ideas?
