I used to work in a company that put the vacuum-deposited thin film coatings on Ray-Ban lenses. I don't know that it was the only company that did this, but they definitely did it.

I used to work in a company that put the vacuum-deposited thin film coatings on Ray-Ban lenses.

Back in the 70s and 80s I bought a couple of pair of their Ambermatic lens sunglasses. Best hunting and driving glasses ever. They weren't for crap flying (not dark enough, had buy the G15s). My final pair broke and the lens was scratched and they don't make them any more.

I am really bummed.
