What will aid in the best cosmetic appearance of a lens?

Explanation:
Reducing reflections on lens surfaces improves cosmetic appearance. An anti-reflective coating minimizes glare and the visible reflections that can reveal the lens edges, letting the eyes show through and giving the lenses a nearly invisible look under most lighting. A colored coating would alter the tint and draw attention; a reflective coating increases glare and makes the lens more noticeable; no coating leaves obvious reflections. So, anti-reflective coating provides the most natural, cosmetically appealing appearance.
