As a layman(er..person) I was wondering about the differences in lens quality from one manufacturer to the next. I have been led to believe that glass is of a higher optical quality than CR or PolyCarb. As long as a lens is of optical quality is it just a matter of aesthetics after that or are there actual tests that can prove one lens is "nicer" to look through then another. Also, cheap drugstore readers and sunglasses are obviously not of optical quality which one can easily tell due to the distortions in the lenses. Another question is what are these lenses made of and how is a manufacturer of lens material able to offer low grade distorted lenses to the public?
