I have an undispensed sunglass job that's on a flat base (~+2.00) in a Wayfarer-style frame (was made for plano sunlenses).

The front itself isn't too distorted by the lenses...it still has about 5 degrees of faceform, but the temples splay outwards.

The posterior part of the lens does protrude past the eyewire, and it seems to me that the lens is keeping the eyewire from rolling around the back of the lens, if you know what I mean.

Questions:
1. Is it the edge thickness? Does that happen?
2. Is there a type of bevel that would help this problem?
3. (Hey, if there is a bevel solution, it's a mirror and backside coated PAL, quite expensive, can it simply be re-edged, or does it need to be totally remade?)



Also question:
Should I just chuck it for higher lens powers and start going ophthalmic? Are they better suited for high power lenses?
