Ok I get what you mean now. But there's no way u can change the dept of the groove cos it's alrdy cut. Unless u can persuade ur optician that it really does bother u.

this problem is obviously the worksmanship, which is getting from bad to worse nowadays. By the way, depends on the worker who is making it for you. Some machines cut a standard groove while maybe some can cut deeper im not too sure. But it really looks ****ty if the nylon is actually sticking out instead of sitting into the groove completely. Thats is y i don like to make semi-rimmed or rimless anymore cos i just don trust the worksmanship anymore cos some are really made badly (maybe due to rush job). At least with full-rimmed, they tend to make less margin of error. And you don even knoe who is the worker, it could be some bangladesh that local co employs in factories. With Hoya or reputable lens brands, then maybe you can get better worksmanship though there is no gaurantee (if the worker happens to be sleepy while doing your job). Haha.

My total damage is 900. Airwear is by crizal, iirc. Carl zeiss is different from crizal.
So, your total damage is 650 for the frame + airwear 1.67 ? Good price

The top part of the arm is metal, lower half is rubberish.. Not sure if it is non-slip but feel good even if I bend my head downwards. No slip. Transition lens I get the best is 780.
