Learn the ins and outs of caring for your prescription glasses below to get the most value for your money.
- Understanding Your Lenses:
Understanding their type and material is the first step in caring for your lenses. Different lenses require specific cleaning solutions and handling techniques.
- Daily Cleaning Routine:
Consistency is vital when it comes to lens care. Establish a daily cleaning routine to remove dirt, oils, and debris that can accumulate on your lenses. Use a mild, non-abrasive lens cleaning solution and a microfiber cloth to clean your glasses gently. Avoid using household cleaners or saliva, as these can damage the lens surface.
- Proper Storage:
Correctly storing your lenses is crucial for maintaining their shape and clarity. Always keep your glasses in a protective case to prevent scratches and accidental damage when not in use.
- Handling Techniques:
Handle your lenses with care to avoid smudges and scratches. Hold your glasses by the frame to prevent touching the lenses when cleaning them.
- Regular Professional Check-ups:
These check-ups monitor your vision and allow optometrists to inspect your lenses for signs of wear, tear, or prescription changes.
- Avoiding Common Pitfalls:
Avoid placing glasses or contacts in direct sunlight or extreme heat, as this can damage lens coatings. Additionally, avoid using tissues or paper towels to clean lenses, as their rough texture can scratch the surface. Lastly, never attempt to adjust the fit of your glasses yourself — always seek professional assistance.
- Cleaning Your Frames:
Use a mild soap or dishwashing liquid mixed with warm water and a soft microfiber cloth to clean your frames gently. Avoid abrasive or alcohol-based cleaners, which can damage the frame material and coatings.
- Proper Storage:
A sturdy case provides a secure haven for your frames, ensuring they stay safe during travel or when unused.
- Adjustments and Repairs:
Eyeglasses occasionally need adjustments to ensure a comfortable fit. If your frames feel loose, visit our expert team for professional adjustments.
- Avoid Harsh Conditions:
Protect your frames from harsh conditions that can compromise their integrity. Avoid leaving your glasses in extreme heat or direct sunlight, which can warp the frame material. Similarly, refrain from wearing your eyeglasses in the shower or while swimming, as exposure to water can damage certain frame materials, such as wood or other metals.
- Handle with Care:
When removing or putting on your frames, use both hands and grip them at the bridge. Avoid excessive force when folding or unfolding the temples.
- Regular Professional Check-ups:
Just like your lenses, your frames benefit from regular professional check-ups. Our skilled team can inspect your frames for signs of wear, such as loose screws, weakened hinges, or fading coatings.
