Atlanta-Robertson Optical Laboratories Inc. has clocked major growth in Teflon Clear Coat Lens sales since the firm opened its new anti-reflective (AR) coating laboratory in September 2005, according to Mike Fussell, Robertson's sales and customer service manager.

Robertson is the only independently owned lab in the southeast that is approved to produce Teflon Clear Coat Lenses in-house.

"While Robertson is enjoying the growth in Teflon Clear Coat Lens sales, the real winners are area eye-care professionals and their patients," said Christie Cornetta, regional marketing manager–east, Carl Zeiss Vision. "AR is the biggest segment of the optical industry that will fuel growth for eye-care professionals now and in the future."

"We are now able to offer premium AR coatings with the quality and service that our customers expect from us," added Fussell. "Our customers see that the combination of great AR performance through our new lab and the powerful Teflon brand can help their AR businesses grow significantly.

"We are succeeding because they are succeeding."
