Eyeglasses are an essential part of our daily lives. Whether we are nearsighted, farsighted, astigmatic or presbyopic, a pair of properly prescribed glasses can greatly improve our visual experience. Over time, however, improper care can cause glasses to lose their clarity and comfort, and even shorten their lifespan. This is why it is important to learn how to care for your glasses properly. Here are some practical tips to help you take better care of your glasses.

 

  1. How to wear

Whenever you take your glasses off or put them on, use both hands to hold the temples and proceed gently. Avoid putting on and taking off your eyewear with only one hand, as this can easily cause uneven force on the frames and lead to deformation. A deformed frame not only affects comfort, but can also cause the optical centre to be out of alignment with the pupil distance, reducing the effectiveness of vision correction.

Avoid prolonged contact with chemicals such as hairspray and cosmetics. The sweat and fat secreted by the human body are corrosive to the metal parts of the frames. Clean them immediately after each use.

  1. How to clean

Use warm water and a lotion-free cleaner. Warm water can help soften the grease on the surface of your lenses. Avoid strong cleaners that may damage the lenses.

Use a professional cleaning cloth or soft flannel. Avoid using rough paper towels or clothing to wipe the lenses, which can scratch the surface. A professional lens cloth or soft flannel will better protect your lenses.

 

  1. How to store

Use a spectacle case. When you are not wearing your glasses, you should store them in a hard or soft case to prevent the lenses from being knocked or scratched. The price of Eyecedar glasses includes a special case, or you can purchase an extra case in the accessories section.

Avoid heat and moisture. Don't leave your glasses in direct sunlight or high temperatures for long periods of time, or in a damp bathroom or toilet to avoid distorting the lenses or discolouring the frames.

  1. Regular inspection and maintenance

To ensure that your spectacles are in the best possible condition, they should be inspected regularly. If the frame screws are loose, the frame is crooked, the lenses are scratched, etc., you should replace the relevant parts in time to avoid affecting the wearing effect and comfort.

 

By doing the above, we can effectively extend the life of our glasses and maintain their good optical performance and comfort. Remember, good care habits will not only make your glasses last longer, but will also protect your eyes better.
