FAQs
What does 'SPX Illusion' refer to?
SPX Illusion refers to Silhouette's proprietary ultra-lightweight and flexible frame material, combined with a design that offers a minimalist aesthetic.
How do I understand the frame size measurements (e.g., 42-15-120)?
The measurements represent: Lens Width (42mm), Bridge Width (15mm), and Temple Length (120mm). These indicate the dimensions of the frame for a proper fit.
Is this model suitable for sports?
While lightweight and durable, the classic round shape may not offer the secure, wrap-around fit ideal for high-impact sports. They are best suited for everyday activities and less intense pursuits.
Can I get these with prescription lenses?
Yes, Silhouette frames are designed to accommodate prescription lenses. You will need to visit an optician to have your prescription fitted into the frames.
What is the warranty period for Silhouette sunglasses?
Warranty information can vary by region and retailer. Please refer to the product documentation or contact the place of purchase for details on the warranty.
How do I clean the SPX frame material?
The SPX frame material can be cleaned with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
Troubleshooting
Sunglasses feel loose or slip down the nose.
Check the temple arm length and bridge width measurements. If significantly off, consult an optician for adjustment or consider a different size. Minor adjustments may be possible by a professional.
Frame appears slightly bent or misshapen.
Due to the SPX material, avoid forcing the frame. Consult an optician for professional adjustment. Do not attempt to bend them forcefully yourself.
Difficulty fitting prescription lenses.
Ensure the optician has the correct frame model (SPX Illusion 2936) and is familiar with Silhouette's SPX material. Confirm lens dimensions are compatible with the frame measurements.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Care:
