To keep your sunglasses and prescription glasses in excellent condition and extend their lifespan, follow these helpful maintenance tips
GLASSES CLEANING
Use a microfiber cloth to avoid scratches. Avoid using paper towels, clothes, or napkins.
Clean with a special lens cleaner or lukewarm water with mild soap. Do not use detergents, alcohol, or ammonia-based products.
Dry carefully with a clean microfiber cloth to avoid water spots.
PROTECTION FROM SCRATCHES & DAMAGE
Always store glasses in their case when not in use.
Avoid leaving them with the lenses down on surfaces that could scratch them.
Remove glasses with both hands to prevent the arms from loosening.
AVOID DAMAGE FROM HEAT & CHEMICALS
Do not leave glasses in excessive heat, such as on the car dashboard or near heat sources, as this can warp the lenses and frame.
Avoid contact with hairspray, sunscreen, and perfumes, as chemicals may damage the lens coatings.
FRAME INSPECTION & MAINTENANCE
Tighten the arms if they become loose using a small screwdriver. If the problem persists, visit an optical store.
Check the nose pads (for prescription glasses) and replace them if they are worn out.
Adjust your glasses if they slip or don't fit properly with the help of a specialist.
UV PROTECTION & HARMFUL CONDITIONS
Wear your glasses even on cloudy days, as UV rays are harmful year-round.
For lenses with anti-reflective or blue light coating, follow the manufacturer's instructions for proper cleaning and protection.
