Looking after your Glasses

By Taunton Hutch

Better your eyes and your bank balance by creating a sensible care programme for your eyeglasses. If you could keep your lenses clean, it will reduce the strain you put your eye muscles under. Your glasses will also last longer if they are looked after properly.

1. Wipe with the proper type of cloth

Shirts, even soft t-shirts, could scrape the glass of your lenses. If theyve got a protective finish like a photo-gray tint, its even more likely to scratch. The abrasions may be invisible to your eyes, but they do affect the crystal clarity that your eyeglass lenses should have. Instead of paper towels, toilet tissue or your shirt tail, use a choice fabric made just for cleaning specs (Lens Cleaner fabric). That way youll avoid microscopic marks that could obscure your glasses and your vision. They may appear to be soft, but they all have microfibres that will scratch and damage your lenses and stop them from lasting as long as they could.

2. Utilise a cleaner thats meant for Wipe with the correct class of cleaning solution

You should use a cleaner that has been designed to safely and effectively clean your lenses. It has to be safe, so that it doesn't damage your eyes or the lenses. It has to be effective at clearing the oily smudges that occur from your fingers touching your lens.

3. Clean regularly to avoid straining your eyes

You should clean your glasses several times a day to prevent smearing and smudging. Insert a portable eyeglass material and cleaner kit into your purse, or keep a small spray might of eyeglass cleaning solution in your desk at work. Your eyes will thank you.

4. Maintain clean glasses

You can keep you glasses looking good for longer by buying a cheap eyeglass chain. Then, whenever you want to not wear your glasses, instead of pushing them up onto your head, for your hair to deposit its grease onto, you might simply drop your glasses onto your chest and know that you will never lose them.

5. Ever had your glasses go foggy when you came in to a warm room?

One great way to avoid that is to use an anti-fog fabric (Anti-Fog cloth) on the lenses. The cloth leaves an invisible coating on the lenses that prevents water from condensing and fogging up your eyesightYou should consider getting one of those anti-fog cloths. They are great as they leave an invisible coating on the surface of the lens. Your lenses will then not allow water to condensate and so stay nice and clear.
