It's not the coatings affecting the magnification--it's the effect the coatings seem to have on the refraction off the center of my right lens--they have different refraction indexes because of their thickness and magnification changes (I didn't notice it much when I wore the awesome huge glasses of the late 80's/early 90's, but now that my wife made me stylish, I see it more, since the sweet spot is smaller)--so when I look through something with only one eye and compare to the other, the positions of anything off center appear to change more than they really are.
Probably not making sense--I'll bring my glasses to L&O and let you see for yourself...
OK, I think I get it now. You must have a very large prescription difference between eyes.
I know what you mean about the current eyeglass selection. Lenses have gotten tiny in the last few years. I use progressive bifocals and like the line as low as possible, so just my dashboard is in focus at the bottom while the greater portion of my FOV is focused out the windsheild. I use prescription sunglasses setup the same way.
