Note from asker:
| already found that one, michela, but it then didn't get any Ghits, so it looks like someone has invented it. |

prismatic (interior)
I think it means that the interior has lots of little facets to reflect the light.

: This may be the right answer, but one of your examples is about ophthalmics and the second two are translations from Italian. Most Google hits are just those funny junk websites with lots of random words.But I'm not disagreeing with you!
