    OMG Lenses too thick! Please Help!

    Hi There!

    Sometime ago I made a post (http://www.optiboard.com/forums/show...097#post105097) asking for some help to buy new glasses. After a long consideration, I decided to buy Stylis 1,67 with Alizé and Transitions. Today my glasses arrived, and I´m shocked!

    I expected a thickness around 4mm in the borders, but it´s a little bit more than 5mm and the aspect is not good. I´m very disappointed with this new glasses, I paid a small fortune for it (here in my country it´s very expensive), and I believe I´ll contact Essilor. My previous glasses used a cheap material and was thinner than this one (4mm on borders). I just can´t believe! Please see below my specs:

    Prescription:
    Right Eye -6,50 Sphere -0,50 Cylinder 160ş
    Left Eye -6,25 Sphere -0,50 Cylinderl 45ş
    Pupilar Distance 61mm
    Total glasses length: 130mm
    Lenses Height: 30mm
    Lenses length: 50mm
    Nose rim Length: 20mm

    The previous glasses have the same specs, with exception of the sphere, it was -6.00 on both eyes and the lenses was in other format:
    Lenses Height: 35mm
    Lenses Length: 48mm

    I attached some pictures (new and old glasses with a ruler), please see them and give me an opinion. I´m very sad and not sure if I can go on streets wearing this new glasses. :(
