All glasses wearers know it well; spectacle lenses get dirty whatever their material! Reading glasses, computer glasses, sunglasses or safety glasses are subjected daily to dust, pollution, dirt and their lenses, even if they are hardened, are not 100% resistant to micro-scratches, scratches... That's why Varionet gives you some valuable tips to extend the life of your lenses and therefore your glasses.
Taking care of your glasses:
- take your glasses on and off with both hands to avoid deforming them.
- never place them on the lenses.
- never expose them to a strong heat source, for example behind your windshield.
- remember to check that the temple screws are tight and the glasses are well adjusted.
- store them in a rigid optical case, preferably, do not put them loose in your bag or in a pocket!
Care and maintenance of your lenses:
- Never clean your lenses dry! Rinse them under water to remove dust before cleaning them.
- do not use harsh chemical products such as acetone, window cleaner, solvent... these will damage surface treatments, hardening, anti-reflective, anti-blue light...
- do not use paper tissues, absorbent paper or your clothes which cause micro-scratches on the surface of the lenses.
- use a specific cleaner for your lenses and a microfiber cloth that you will wash regularly (30° in the machine).
Bonus tip:
Varionet glasses cleaning sprays and microfiber cloths can also be used to clean your various screens, phone, tablets or computer, headphones, camera lenses...
By following these few suggestions, you will prevent certain scratches and keep your glasses looking good.
