When you invest in quality eyewear, you’re not just choosing a stylish accessory—you’re making an investment in your vision and eye health. Whether you’ve picked up a sleek designer frame or a classic everyday pair, proper care can significantly extend the life of your glasses.
Here’s how to take care of your frames to keep them in great condition and reduce waste—because looking after your eyewear is also a win for the planet!
- Clean Your Glasses the Right Way
Always use a microfibre cloth to clean your lenses and frames. Avoid using tissues, paper towels, or the corner of your shirt—they can scratch the surface and damage any coatings on your lenses. For deeper cleaning, use lens-safe spray or warm water with a gentle soap.
- Use a Case—Always
Protect your glasses when you’re not wearing them by keeping them in a hard protective case. Throwing them in your bag or leaving them on a table makes them prone to scratches, bending, or accidental damage.
- Keep Them Away from Heat
Did you know that leaving your glasses in a hot car or near a heater can warp your frames or damage the lens coating? Always store them in a cool, dry place to prevent heat damage.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals
Hairspray, cleaning products, and even perfumes can deteriorate your frames over time. Try to keep your glasses away from any harsh chemicals to maintain their colour and structure.
