Introduction

Properly maintaining your eyeglasses ensures not only clear vision but also longevity of the eyewear. Many opt for quick fixes like shirt tails or tissues, but these can lead to scratches and damage. Utilizing appropriate techniques and products is essential.

Steps for Cleaning Eyeglasses

The following steps provide a reliable method to clean your glasses effectively:

1. Rinse with Warm Water: Begin by rinsing your glasses under a gentle stream of warm water. Avoid hot water as it can damage lens coatings.
2. Apply a Drop of Dishwashing Liquid: Use a mild dishwashing liquid. Place a single drop on each lens and gently rub both sides and the frame with your fingertips.
3. Rinse Again Thoroughly: Rinse off the dishwashing liquid under warm water to remove any soap residue that could cause smudging or streaks.
4. Dry with a Lint-Free Cloth: Gently dry your glasses using a clean microfiber cloth. Paper towels or clothes with fibers should be avoided as they can scratch the lenses.
5. Inspect and Adjust: Examine your glasses to ensure they are clean and the arms are aligned properly. Adjust them if necessary.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Avoid Using Your Shirt: Fabrics can contain dirt particles that scratch lenses.
• No Harsh Chemicals: Household cleaners, especially those containing ammonia, can damage coatings.
• Avoid Hot Water: Extends to dishwashers or using hot taps, which degrade coatings over time.
• Watch Out for Rough Tissues: Use only microfiber cloths designed for lenses.
