Minus lenses are thickest at the edges. Choosing a higher index will certainly make them thinner yes, but so does choosing a smaller frame. The smaller the frame you can live with, the more edge thickness we will grind off. Also, the more centered your eyes are in the frame, the better, as there won't be extra thickness in the direction furthest from the eyes. Sincerely, an optometrist from Denmark.

This is what I have found too. The distortion becomes too much around the edges with larger frames. Also, I heard more round frames are better as the more square the thicker the edges are

But, the smaller the lens - and therefore frame - for progressives wearers, the more difficult it is to differentiate between the varying fields of vision. Sincerely, A Progressives Wearer

Avoid what? The high index is going to have a warped look even if it's a small frame. Mines like 1.54 something like that. The sides barely show. But is what it is. I can't escape it.

@kiraPh1234k8 ай бұрын
The higher the number, the thinner the lense. The number is referencing the material's ability to bend light. The more bending it does, the thinner you get to make it compared to lower index lenses. E.g. 1.61 is going to be thicker than 1.71

@louienoble41117 ай бұрын
@@curlyhairdudeify that isn't the way it works, most of the time both eyes don't have the same prescription, therefore one needs more correction than the other, causing the lens to become thicker on one rather than both, when processing glasses we have the option to do split lenses in order to make the thickness of both lenses similar to one another to promote weight distribution. Also, polycarbonate lenses and high index have nothing to do with his comment, he was asking if it was okay to have a different prescription in either lens.
