Looking After Your Clothes: viii. Glasses and Sunglasses

  • Proper storage in a hard-boxed case can extend the lifespan of glasses for many years, as opposed to a soft fabric bag or pouch.


CLEANING:

  • Everyday sweat, oil, dirt and makeup can accumulate on glasses, which can then transfer back to your skin on next wear.

  • To clean the glasses thoroughly, gently wipe surfaces with warm water, washing-up liquid and a lint-free cloth.

  • For a quick clean, use a microfibre lens cloth along with a lens cleaner spray or wipe, typically found in your glasses or sunglasses case, at purchases.

  • A small packet of glasses cleaner wipes can be convenient for travel.

MAINTENANCE:

  • Having a compact glasses repair kit can be convenient and readily bought on-line. It may contain micro-screwdrivers, various sizes of replacement screws and caps for glasses, spare plastic nose pads, tweezers and a cleaning cloth.

  • For quick fixes while out and about, a keychain micro-screwdriver can come in very useful.
