To effectively clean the lenses on your glasses, avoid hot water and use this method:
- Apply Soap: Place a small drop of liquid dish soap (avoid those with lotions) on each lens.
- Rub Gently: Rub the soap across both sides of the lenses and the entire frame for about 20 seconds. Make sure to clean the nose pads and the ends of the temples (the part that goes behind your ears).
- Rinse Thoroughly: Rinse the glasses thoroughly under lukewarm water. Ensure all soap residue is removed.
- Dry with Microfiber Cloth: Gently dry the lenses with a clean, soft microfiber cloth. Avoid using paper towels or tissues, as these can scratch the lens coating.
Additional Tips:
- Toothbrush for Detail: A soft toothbrush can be helpful for cleaning the nose pads and hinges where dirt and oil tend to accumulate.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Don't use harsh chemicals like alcohol, bleach, or ammonia, as these can damage the lens coatings.
- Regular Cleaning: Clean your glasses daily or as needed to maintain clear vision and prevent the buildup of grime.
