Hi all,

Never felt the need for any of the anti-glare coatings when I've had glasses in the past, and have been fine with them

But now we're in the world of Zoom, Teams etc I'm finding the reflection of my screen showing on my glasses on my video stream quite distracting (and those on the call can see what I'm doing when not paying attention biggrin )

For those of you who have the anti-glare have you found that it reduces/stops that reflection?

TIA

We don't either. We can have three or four calls a day & we don't have the cameras on, although we do a lot of screen sharing.

Sorry, doesn't help with the reflection problem but you could try a polarising lens in front of the camera to see if it helps. To test it try getting someone to hold a pair of sunglasses in front of the lens.
