I read in the web that the yellow tint in my 10x42 is because the lenses have a coating for some kind of radiation protection ( infrared I think).new line of IOR scopes are intended for civilian use and dont have it. Can be true ? |

I do believe the yellow tint did have something to do with the binocular's military use and design but radiation protection I am not sure about. I was told that they did not change because the glass and coatings were all designed and built to work together and it was not until recently that they started using a different glass that allowed them to change the coatings.
