possible to un-polish lens edges?
Hi, I just got new semi-rimless glasses. When I recived them I noticed the edges weren't polished and since my prescription is fairly high (-5.25 R, -4.5 L) I asked if they could send them back to get the edges polished. The optician said they could, but that they couldn't be polished the same way they normally do as they would have to have done it origionally when I first purchased them. I agreed.
When I got them and put them on at home, I noticed a large amount of glare and it's been really really distracting me.
I'm wondering if anyone knows if it's possible to have the lenses "un-polished" ?
Thanks
A better solution might be. . .
an edge kote. That way you get the gloss of a nice finished job without the reflections. Check with your Optician about the details and whether this would be suitable for you.

They became drinking buddies and spent time with him in Ecuador drilling for oil and mining for gold. Later in life my Uncle put 3 kids trough college playing cards and the horses.
I got to spend some time with him later in his life and he always held up Smokey, who never finished high school, as someone who proved that the system wasn't for everyone. The quote was one of my Uncles favorites and its made a big impression on me and how I try to live my life.
If you go to smokeyyunick.com and click on the bio you'll see that not only was he a talented mechanic, but also an inventor and engineer.
