We challenge a recent paper in this journal suggesting that the well-established formula governing the transmittance of radiance across a refracting interface needs revision [Optics Express, 25(22) 27086 (2017)]. We provide a simple example of radiative transfer across an interface showing that the accepted formula is correct.
