Okay, now that we know what NOT to do when we clean our eyeglasses, let’s finally learn how to clean them properly. You’ll need a few drops of soap, water, a few cotton swabs, and a clean microfiber cloth for glasses for this method. After gathering all the supplies, simply follow these step:
1. First, run the cotton swabs over the perimeter of the lenses and all the nooks and crevices in the frame. This will help remove any dirt and oil build-up on the frame.
2. Next, rinse the glasses under some lukewarm (but NOT hot) tap water. This will loosen up any dirt on the surface of the glasses. Bottled water may be better if you have particles in your tap water.
3. You can use hand soap or dish detergent to dissolve any stubborn stains. Simply apply a drop of soap on both sides of each lens, and massage the soap into the surface with your fingers. Rinse the soap off thoroughly with lukewarm water.
4. Use a clean microfiber cloth to dry the eyeglasses, and voila, your glasses are squeaky clean!
Repeat this process at least once every month. In-between, you can definitely use eyeglass cleaning wipes or simply a damp microfiber cloth to refresh the glasses. We hope you found this article useful!
