I've recently gotten rimless glasses that had Varilux Liberty polycarbonate lenses w/Crizal AR in them. The first pair I got got had a problem with chromatic abberation (seeing rainbows at the top fringes of faraway objects). I had the lenses remade believing that there was a mistake with the lenses themselves as the fitting height was too high on the first pair, but the problem persists with the second pair and the fitting height was corrected in these. I don't have a strong Rx (see below), so I don't understand why I'm having problems.
OD Sph: +0.50 Cyl: -0.75 Axis: 045 Add: +2.25 OS Sph: +0.25 Cyl: -0.50 Axis 133 Add: +2.25 Lenses are 54mm Wide x 37mm High. My question: is this is a problem inherent with all polycarbonate due to the low Abbe values, or is it a problem with the Varilux brand themselves or the Crizal AR? Do the other brands (like Zeiss or Nikon) have this problem with their poly lenses also? And if so, what are my options for having these rimless specs reglazed? I'd prefer a PAL with a wider corridor or a free-form progressive, but don't know what's available for rimless specs.
