Reading Glasses | Indoor & Outdoor Use

How do I clean and maintain my reading glasses?

Learn how to clean reading glasses, protect photochromic lenses, avoid scratches, and store your glasses for daily use.

To keep your reading glasses clear and comfortable for daily use, clean them gently and store them properly.

  1. Use a soft microfiber eyeglass cloth or lens-safe cleaning wipe.

  2. You may rinse the lenses with clean water and a small amount of mild soap, then dry them with a soft cloth.

  3. Do not wipe the lenses with tissues, paper towels, clothing, or rough fabric because this may scratch the lens surface.

  4. Avoid high-temperature places such as car dashboards, saunas, or direct heat sources.

  5. Avoid contact with strong chemicals such as hairspray, pesticides, solvents, or household cleaners.

  6. Store your glasses in a case when you are not wearing them.
