How do you clean your sunglasses correctly?

Sunglasses Maintenance

Sunglasses protect your eyes from UV rays, and proper maintenance is essential for both function and appearance. Regular cleaning will maintain clear visibility and extend the life of your sunglasses.

Cleaning Sunglasses

• Rinse the sunglasses under lukewarm, running water to remove dust and dirt that could scratch the lenses during subsequent cleaning.
• Use a mild, soap-free cleaning solution and a soft microfiber cloth to wipe the frame and lenses. Avoid rubbing too hard as this may damage the protective layer.
• Let the sunglasses dry naturally and avoid direct sunlight or heat sources, which can distort the material.

Storage

Store your sunglasses in a case when not in use. This will prevent scratches and damage that can occur from accidental contact with hard surfaces.
