Otherwise the coating is not likely to have anything ever happen to it. With a uv filter you are degrading a lens which is a work of art and cost you as much now as tens of thousands of dollars. And professional and serious photographers will just when they see it laugh at you for being an idiot. But go ahead and buy the filter. Protect your lens! You're worried.
