Keeping eyeglasses clean, sanitized and free of scratches may seem simple enough.

With this cleaning method, you can ensure clean, scratch-free and smudge-free results.

Lightly rinse your lenses in lukewarm water to remove dust or debris that can cause scratches when wiped dry.

For lenses with a coating, use eyeglass cleaner spray.

Dry your glasses with a soft, microfiber towel or a cloth specifically made for your glasses.

With a disinfecting wipe, wipe down all the nooks and crannies, like nose pads, ear clips and even the hinges, as they can collect hair, dust and sweat.

For a scratch-free clean, avoid acetone products.

Don’t dry or wipe glasses with a paper towel, tissues or your t-shirt.

Using the wrong products to clean your eyeglasses can result in damage.
