Testing AR Coating on Polarized Lenses

Polarized lenses are best suited for a dedicated pair of sunglasses. Anti Reflective (AR) coatings are often added to the back of polarized lenses to help reduce reflections on the back of the lenses (some can see reflections of their own eyes); which some people find very distracting. The question becomes, should you add the AR coating to both sides of the lens, or just the back? Does adding the AR coating negate the polarized lenses by allowing too much light to pass through?

In this video, we test the difference of adding an AR coating to just the backside vs. the front and back, and just how much more light passes through the lenses.
