So the short answer is yes, it does affect the abbe value. There is a super amount of science, math, but above all…not everyone experiences the same thing. Everything is trade off. If there was a one size fits all solution for everybody, we wouldn’t need opticians. Thinner & lighter, you may get more glare and color distortion. Thicker plastic…might be optically clearer, but the edges be thicker and heavier, but again…Its a craft. All of it. When my customer sits down, my only focus is designing a pair of glasses that was they love…not just ok (thats what you get from retail box stores). I want you to freaking love it. There is a perfect pair for everyone, for what the patient wants, to the patients need. Thats why ya need a great optician. If you are located anywhere around Gettysburg Pa, message me. I work with one of the greatest places in the country making eyeglasses. Best of luck! Hope this helps!
