Abbe Value: 45
Chromatic aberration can cause objects to appear blurred, with rainbow edges. Many eyeglass wearers find this burdensome.
The patient is more likely to notice this visual impediment as his or her eye points farther from the center of the lens— for example, in situations where a patient is checking a side-view mirror, looking down at a menu, or looking for a book high on a shelf. In any situation where the eye is pointed away from center, the chromatic aberration can impede vision.
A lens material with a higher Abbe value, such as Trilogy®, will provide a much clearer and sharper image. This is great news for your patients that want and need a thin and light lens with superior optics.
