Search HN for "ABBE". The very cheapest material has the highest optical quality. Thinner ones are for weight, which matters if you have strong prescriptions. Weight can also be countered with a smaller frame height/width, which might require a vintage or designer frame, but that's a one time cost that can used with cheaper and higher optical quality lens replacements.
