What is the correct way to clean the lenses?
In the process of daily use of glasses, some actions are the culprit of "deadly" glasses, which not only damage the glasses, but also may deepen the degree of glasses. Let's take a look at how the wrong habit of wiping glasses with the corners of clothes can cause damage to the lenses.
The lens gets dirty and needs to be wiped. We repeat this action every day, even many times a day. So, what do you use for Sassafras? How did you wipe it? Most people pick up the corners of their clothes and rub them back and forth on the lenses, as if they have to lose a layer of "skin" to be clean. In fact, this action is the most "deadly" to the lens.
Glasses that have been used for a day will inevitably leave oil stains, fingerprints, dust stains, etc. on the surface of the lenses. If you wipe the lenses directly at the corner of your clothes at this time, it will cause at least 4 kinds of damage.
Damage 1: The dust in the corner of the clothes and the dust on the surface of the lens double friction, which will leave multiple scratch marks on the surface of the lens;
Damage 2: The oil stain was not wiped off, but was wiped on the entire lens by a larger area;
Damage 3: The lens may be dislocated and transferred when it is wiped hard, especially for round-frame glasses with astigmatism, the axial position of the lens may have shifted inadvertently;
Damage 4: Friction electrification is a very normal phenomenon. When you rub the lens, the lens is generated, which makes it easier to absorb the dust in the air. In winter, sometimes the lens is not always clean, and it is very easy to get dirty. Not clean again after hours.
What is the correct way to clean lenses?
- Ultrasonic cleaning
The main stains on the lens surface are oil stains and dust. The best way to remove oil stains is to use water with detergent to clean them. Dust not only falls on the surface of the lens, but also falls into the gaps of the frame. The ultrasonic cleaning machine vibrates to clean, which can not only remove the stains on the lens, but also shake out the stains in the gap of the frame. Ultrasonic cleaning machines are generally only available in optical shops, so you can go to the optical shop for maintenance and cleaning 1-2 times a month.
- Use a special mirror cloth to wipe
There are free glasses cloths in the store when you are finished with glasses. You can also use a special lens cloth to wipe your glasses daily. However, before wiping, check whether there is obvious dust on the surface of the lenses or the lens cloth. You can blow it off first or Is to shake off and then wipe.
- Use special cleaning solution or lens wipes
In order to easily clean the stains on the lenses, many optical shops will prepare cleaning fluids or wipes for customers.
