3. Setup
Your Silhouette eyeglass frame is designed for immediate use with its transparent demo lenses. For vision correction, consult with a qualified optician to have prescription lenses fitted into the frame. Ensure the frame fits comfortably on your face without causing pressure points.
- Initial Inspection: Upon receiving your frames, carefully inspect them for any signs of damage or misalignment.
- Lens Fitting: Take your frames to a professional optician for the installation of your prescription lenses. They will ensure proper fit and alignment.
- Adjustments: If the frames feel loose or tight, or if they sit unevenly, visit your optician for professional adjustments. Avoid attempting to bend or adjust the frame yourself, as this may cause damage.
4. Operating
Wearing your Silhouette eyeglasses is straightforward. Handle them with care to maintain their condition and structural integrity.
- Putting On/Taking Off: Always use both hands to put on or take off your eyeglasses. Grasp the temples (arms) near the hinges. This prevents bending the frame and keeps it aligned.
- Proper Fit: The frames should rest comfortably on your nose bridge and behind your ears without slipping or causing discomfort.
- Storage: When not in use, always store your eyeglasses in their provided protective case to prevent scratches and damage.
5. Maintenance
Regular cleaning and proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your Silhouette eyeglass frames.
- Cleaning Lenses: Use a microfiber cloth specifically designed for eyeglasses. For stubborn smudges, rinse the lenses with lukewarm water and a small drop of mild dish soap. Gently rub with your fingertips, then rinse thoroughly and dry with a clean microfiber cloth. Avoid using paper towels, clothing, or harsh chemicals, as these can scratch the lenses.
- Cleaning Frames: Wipe the frame with a damp, soft cloth. For a deeper clean, use a mild soap solution and rinse thoroughly. Dry immediately with a soft, clean cloth.
- Avoid Extreme Temperatures: Do not leave your eyeglasses in direct sunlight (e.g., on a car dashboard) or in extremely cold environments, as this can damage the frame material and lens coatings.
- Regular Check-ups: Periodically check screws for tightness. If they become loose, gently tighten them with a small eyewear screwdriver. If you are unsure, visit your optician.
6. Troubleshooting
Below are common issues and their recommended solutions.
- Frames feel loose or slide down: This indicates the temples or nose pads may need adjustment. Visit your optician for a professional fitting.
- Frames feel too tight or cause pressure: Similar to looseness, this requires professional adjustment by an optician to relieve pressure points.
- Lenses are constantly smudged: Ensure you are using a clean microfiber cloth and appropriate cleaning solution. Avoid touching the lenses with your fingers.
- Screws are loose: Gently tighten with a small eyewear screwdriver. Do not overtighten. If a screw is missing, contact your optician for replacement.
- Frame is bent or distorted: Do not attempt to fix severe bends yourself. Take the frames to a professional optician for repair to avoid further damage.
