Yep, the diagonal probably has two flat surfaces with a curve between.  The
lens usually won't do such things unless the curves are really bad.
In addition, astigmatism would more normally be the result if the lens was
the culprit.
I suggest that you pull the diagonal and try the focusing without it.
