The Silhouette Illusion Lite 1607 eyeglasses bring Austrian precision engineering to a modern cat-eye silhouette. Built from Silhouette’s proprietary SPX®+ material—a high-performance polymer that’s 40% lighter than acetate yet twice as strong—these frames deliver all-day comfort without pressure points. The cat-eye shape features a soft upswept outer corner that flatters round, oval, and heart-shaped faces, while the full-rim construction provides stability for prescription lenses including progressives and bifocals.
Silhouette developed SPX®+ in 1983 as an alternative to traditional acetate, and it remains the gold standard for lightweight eyewear. The material maintains its shape despite extreme flexibility, resists cosmetics and UV exposure, and is completely hypoallergenic—ideal for sensitive skin. The frames are hand-dipped to ensure consistent color throughout, available in gradient finishes from classic black to warm tortoise tones. Thin gold temples add a refined detail that’s subtle online but elegant in person.
The 1607 features Silhouette’s maintenance-free snap hinge system—no screws to loosen or lose. This integrated hinge design flexes naturally for a personalized fit while maintaining durability over years of daily wear. The 13mm bridge and adjustable temples (135mm for size 56, 140mm for size 58) ensure a secure, comfortable fit that won’t slip during wear.
These prescription-ready frames accommodate single vision, progressive, and high-index lenses. The cat-eye shape provides ample lens height for progressive wearers, allowing smooth transitions between distance, intermediate, and reading zones. Whether you need everyday eyeglasses or want to add custom clip-on sunglasses for UV protection, the Illusion Lite 1607 adapts to your lifestyle. Available in 12 color and size combinations, from understated neutrals to statement-making gradients.
