    Deepest Depth On A Silhouette Titan

    What is the deepest "B" dimension or depth you have used on a Silhouette Rimless. I have a customer with a visual problem and he needs a deep shape. Between 40 -44mm in depth. The deepest pattern I can find from Silhouette is 37 mm. Thanks for your help.

    You can take any Silhouette rimless and add to the B measurement. Make sure you specify to the lab if you want it added to the bottom only. Make sure frame can handle rx and use lightest shatter resistant lens. Also make sure enough temple length. I change Silhouette shapes all the time. Good luck.

    You can use any pattern or shape for any three piece rimless. It doesn't have to come from the frame manufacturer. It doesn't have to be a pattern for a rimless.
    It can be any size you can get a blank to cut out.
    You must have went to college.

    I have sent in silhouette orders with shapes from kenmark, safilo, and many others, as well as free hand shapes, and they have worked extremely well. Just make sure your lab can do it and aren't afraid to remake it if they make it wrong
    :D
