Caring for your glasses is crucial. Not only does it prevent damage to the lenses and frames, but it also ensures that you maintain the clearest vision possible. However, we all know that just grabbing the nearest cloth and rubbing isn't the way to go. So, let's talk about the do's and don'ts of glasses cleaning and care.
4 “do’s” to follow when caring for your glasses.
Start rinsing your glasses with water
Before you apply any cleaning solution, it's a good idea to rinse your glasses under lukewarm water. This can remove any larger particles of dust or grit that could potentially scratch your lenses during the cleaning process.Use the right cleaning solution and cloth
The first and foremost step in maintaining your glasses is to use a proper cleaning solution and cloth. Our Nooz Optics cleaning kit includes a 100% alcohol free cleaning spray and a microfiber cloth. These are designed to clean your lenses gently yet effectively, without scratching or causing any damage.Clean your Glasses regularly
Clean your glasses daily, or even more frequently if you're in a dusty or grimy environment. Regular cleaning not only provides you with the best vision, but it also prevents the build-up of substances that can gradually damage the lens coatings or frames.Keep your glasses protected
When you're not wearing your glasses, make sure to store them in a case to protect them from scratches and other damage. Always remember to close the case properly to prevent dust from entering.
4 “Don'ts” to prevent damaging your glasses
Using the wrong cleaning solutions
Soap, hydro-alcoholic gel, household cleaners and disinfectant wipes often contain chemicals that can damage glass and glass coatings. Stick to a dedicated eyeglass cleaning solution like our Nooz Optics Cleaning Spray.Using rough materials
Using a rough material, such as paper towels, tissues, or clothing, can cause scratches on your lenses. Instead, use a soft, special cleaning cloth like the one provided in our cleaning kit.Leaving your glasses in the wrong conditions
Avoid leaving your glasses in a hot car or in direct sunlight. Heat can warp the frames and damage the lenses. Additionally, don't leave your glasses in a cold place as it can also damage the frame material.Wearing glasses while bathing in the sea
There are two main reasons why it is generally not recommended to swim in seawater with your eyewear on.
Seawater contains salt, which can corrode lens coatings and metal parts, damaging them over time.
Sand particles present in seawater can scratch the lenses, which can affect the quality of vision.
