Lenses not fitting / resize orbital?

I have a J-Serial X-Metal Juliet and a JI-Serial Plasma Juliet... both are giving me a hell of a time with both OEM and custom cut lenses. I can get the lenses in, but it takes a LOT of effort to hold the orbital tight enough to get the orbital screw to engage.
I put a brand new set of OEM Titanium Polarized lenses in the XM and got one wear before I started to see stress-related delamination at the pinch point. I removed the custom cut lenses from the Plasma frame before they could start to fail.

I understand there are differences between every frame because of how they were manufactured, but has anyone modified the lens groove within the orbitals to loosen the fit around their lenses?

And although I am sure you already did, please check the channels and clean them out.
