We have all done it. Your glasses get a little smudged, so you quickly grab the corner of your shirt to wipe them clean.
But as harmless as it feels, cleaning your glasses with your clothes is one of the fastest ways to ruin your lenses. Everyday fabrics like cotton and polyester trap tiny, microscopic dust and dirt particles. When you rub them against your glasses, those particles act like sandpaper, slowly grinding away at your expensive anti-glare and protective coatings. Over time, this leaves a web of permanent micro-scratches that make your lenses look cloudy and cause extra eye strain.
To help keep your lenses pristine, stick to a dedicated microfiber cleaning cloth and a gentle, optician-approved lens spray. If your glasses are already looking a bit hazy or scratched up, click the link in our bio to book an appointment and let's get you set up with a fresh, crystal-clear pair!
