A reduced glare, conductive coated panel having increased visible light transmission and suitable for use as a touch screen, digitizer panel or a substrate in an information display includes a transparent substrate, one or more thin film interference layers forming a thin film stack on each of the opposite surfaces of the substrate, and a transparent, electrically conductive coating on the outermost layer of one or both of the thin film stacks. The method preferably includes dipping the substrate in a solution of a precursor for the thin film material at an angle to the vertical and the surface of the solution such that the layer of one side of the substrate has a thickness different from that on the opposite side, curing the layers, and applying the transparent electrically conductive coating thereover.
