WHAT IS ABBE VALUE?

Abbe value

The higher the Abbe value, the more accurately a lens aligns the spectrum of light waves that pass through it. Lens materials with lower Abbe Values are unable to focus these light waves accurately, resulting in "chromatic aberration," a vision defect that appears as distracting fringes of color around dark type and objects.
