Have a low-power SV myope (-1.50 OU with -0.50 cyl OD) who recently made the switch from trivex to poly for financial reasons, and who is now complaining about periphreal distortion, especially when he turns his head-- his description sounds a bit like complaints from new PAL wearers. I'm guessing that it's chroma from the drop in Abbe quality, but, just wanted to bounce it off a few of you before I spoke with him about it. He's not complaining about any color distortion or rainbowing effects, which is leading me to think it might be an issue with the lenses, but I didn't want to send the guy down the remake-and-let's-see hole if it can be avoided. Any other thoughts? And if it is an abbe issue, are there any reccomendations for helping the guy adapt? He put forth the effort of wearing them for two weeks before coming back, so he is trying to get used to them.
