UV filter for macro lens?

Need a first quality UV filter 52mm for my NIKKOR lens AF-S DX Micro 85/3.5G ED VR

Does a UV filter for a macro lens differs from any other UV filter for common or zoom lenses?

    Why do you need a UV filter? Your camera already has an internal UV cut filter.

    Nope, all UV filters are the same, as far as what lens they go on. Yes, getting a quality UV filter helps with distortion. The B+W filter has a good reputation.

    B+W, Hoya, Tiffen.

    I don't use UV filters anymore. They are more trouble than worth.
