[alt.sys.sun] Are aftermarket anti-reflection coated CRTs available?

Does anyone know of an aftermarket source for CRTs compatible with
Sun 19" monochrome monitors, with antireflection coating (OCLI or
similar) applied directly to the CRT?  In the past, I've occasionally
used a Sun color monitor with anti-reflection coating, and found it
very pleasant.

I'm using an OCLI Glare Guard filter on a Sun now - it is an improvement,
but reflection from the CRT surface is still strong enough to be annoying,
and as the CRT ages and dims, the high neutral density of OCLI's glass only
makes things worse.

I wouldn't mind seeing a similar replacement CRT for the NeXT monitor, too.
