Curious about windshield in 2015 models

I just drove an '15 E 350 loaner for two days last week and one thing really bothered me while driving this car. The windshield seemed to have some slight distortion in it. At first I removed and cleaned my sunglasses thinking this was the problem. Nope. I then drove without them and it still had distortion. Day two of driving it started to give me a headache because I now became fixated on the issue. I'm curious if this was a flaw in this one windshield, or has MB altered the glass from prior models? Also, I have excellent eye sight thanks to Lasik and the vehicle had less than 2k miles on it. Has anyone esle experienced this?

Must have been a single car flaw. Absolutely no distortion in my 2015 E250BT windshield. Very satisfied with this amazing car !

One of the best things about getting a new one is the glass does not have years of road abuse. I traded my 08 E on a new 15 and it's so nice looking through a crystal clear windshield again.

My glass s flawless.
