I meant they went with "hallucinations" because it only affects the specific target, whereas illusions tend to be something out in the world that literally everyone in the area is seeing wrong. While suddenly being unable to see something isn't a hallucination, they could be going with the logic that Emerald is making Amber see a fake image of the road where Emerald should be.

Admittedly, the sunglasses thing is kind of a guess, but it still seems more reasonable to me that it was meant to be a situation where Emerald's Semblance wouldn't have worked on her if she had been wearing her sunglasses, rather than just "This is symbolism of how much Coco got curbstomped."
