We have a job for Natural PAL in CR-39 with AR with this script:

Patient is getting double vision in distance only in os only.
Patient has been rechecked by doctor with no change.
Anyone have any thoughts about how to handle this?

surface wave or coating streak. Look into the lensometer as you move the lens horizontally on the lens table. At one point you'll probably see the axis change radically, then return to its original position. Remake the lens.

Double vision in the left eye only?? If it's not a lens distorion, it could be either monocular diplopia which would have nothing to do with the Rx, but an internal ocular problem, OR the patient is really describing vision at a distance which is so blurry that objects look double.

If he/she doesn't have the double with previous Rx or trial lenses, you have a bad lens. If he/she DOES have the double with other glasses/trial lenses, then the patient has a bad eye (cataract maybe, other possibilities).
