How to: clean your glasses, eyewear and sunglasses.
Keeping your glasses and sunglasses clean can seem impossible. Cleaning them to rid them of smudges with a cloth and spray may suffice, however sometimes they may need more.
Every so often to keep them in tip-top shape our glasses need a thorough clean.
Here are some tips to help:
- Wash your hands to make sure they are free from any dirt or grime.
- Rinse your glasses under lukewarm water in the sink to wash off any excess debris that could scratch your lenses.
- Rub a tiny amount of dishwashing liquid or hand wash between your fingers. Give your lenses a light gentle wash. Make sure to use soaps that are free from lotions.
TIP: Clean where the frame meets the lenses and contact areas such as nose pads.
- Rinse your glasses thoroughly to remove all soap and dry with a microfibre cloth.
