Abstract
An anti-reflection coating for optical elements and a method for forming an anti-reflection coating on an optical element includes one or more layers of a woven plastic mesh material that may be layered on the surface of an optical element such as the lens and secured thereto with a suitable adhesiveor pressed on to the surface by either a peripheral retaining ring or bodily pressed in place by a low loss, low dielectric medium. The number and thickness of the layers of the woven plastic mesh material are selected to provide optimal reduction of reflection losses.
