Strictly speaking, any lens will distort three dimensional objects at the edges - it's a purely natural result of the Way Things Are and nothing at all to do with the quality or otherwise of the optics.

Poor quality optics will distort more, of course due to faults; but even a perfect lens would not be free of this type of distortion.
