Just few note points to consider- 1) do not use , isopropyl alcohol, detergent , soap, etc . Use dishwash liquid ( not soap ) tht will not leave any residue 2 ) clean with glass cleaner cloth as shown in video only , it is usually given when u buy glasses , usually like silk 3 ) avoid leaving glasses in any places . Keep thm in box whn not using . It will keep off dust also reducing risk of getting scratches, mishandling . 4 ) never give glasses to people who don't wear thm , NEVER . They usually grab glasses by touching lenses .

I’ve been wearing glasses for 40 years. Since they’ve had anti-glare coatings I find the coating starts coming off within the 6 months before I change my glasses (about every 3 years). I was told recently this is because I wash them daily. I just wash them in the shower with shower gel. The optician told me to just use water. Frankly I’d rather have grease free clean glasses and just accept the coating will eventually fail.

@@Alex-gh3zo hot water is definitely more effective at dissolving fat, oils and moving away surfactants like soap. Try cleaning a pan with congealed fat on it with cold vs hot water alone, the hot water dissolves all the fat. Its the same thing for soap. What's your logic? The only problem i can see with hot water is that sometimes old hot water tanks leach iron and other things into the water and reflective coatings might get stressed by very hot water. Cold water tends to bead off the lens better, but takes longer to dry usually.

I wear mine in the shower every day and use ivory. I dry them twice in two separate parts of a clean cotton towel. If they smudge later or get splttered with grease while cooking some other dirty activities, I'll use dish or other non lotion soap and always a cotton towel or washcloth. Never use those nylon cleaning lens wipes unless you want to smear them. Best trick I share with everyone I see wearing glasses.

As long as you use a gentle detergent like dawn dish soap, it should be safe. And if there's anything on them, like oils, or even something abrasive, the dish soap will create a barrier around it to help prevent scratching, and also to carry it away when rinsing. Less gentle soaps and detergents could be damaging, though. Water to rinse off any particles, and a microfiber cloth might be fine, but you'll want to periodically wash the cloth with a gentle detergent or it will become saturated. You'll also want to shake it before use to ensure it doesn't have any particles on it that could be abrasive.

Good up to the point of rubbing "glasses" with a cloth. Lenses are now usually more durable plastics which are lighter and have a higher index of refraction. They are usually coated to improve transmission of light and reduce reflection. This coating repels water, which is easily absorbed into a paper towel without rubbing the lens. Never rub anything in the lens except a clean dish soap without lotion for your hands.

Everyone seems to use isopropyl alcohol but I've always avoided it thinking it could stain eventually. I'm so happy that a big lens manufacturer is recommending just water and detergent.

I’ve been wearing glasses for 40 years. Since they’ve had anti-glare coatings I find the coating starts coming off within the 6 months before I change my glasses (about every 3 years). I was told recently this is because I wash them daily. I just wash them in the shower with shower gel. The optician told me to just use water. Frankly I’d rather have grease free clean glasses and just accept the coating will eventually fail.

@@Alex-gh3zo hot water is definitely more effective at dissolving fat, oils and moving away surfactants like soap. Try cleaning a pan with congealed fat on it with cold vs hot water alone, the hot water dissolves all the fat. Its the same thing for soap. What's your logic? The only problem i can see with hot water is that sometimes old hot water tanks leach iron and other things into the water and reflective coatings might get stressed by very hot water. Cold water tends to bead off the lens better, but takes longer to dry usually.

@ilovefreeski Hot water is great for washing. Cold water for rinsing. Try making a sink of hot was water and then make a sink of cold water using the same amount of soap. You get far fewer suds and they break down much faster. Cold water is superior for rinsing soap residue.
I wear mine in the shower every day and use ivory. I dry them twice in two separate parts of a clean cotton towel. If they smudge later or get splttered with grease while cooking some other dirty activities, I'll use dish or other non lotion soap and always a cotton towel or washcloth. Never use those nylon cleaning lens wipes unless you want to smear them. Best trick I share with everyone I see wearing glasses. My mom thought she had cataracts until I cleaned her glasses one day, lol
So simple yet effective
Thank you for your advice and I love how you added not to use paper towel and the reason why :)))

@fragmentalstew

As long as you use a gentle detergent like dawn dish soap, it should be safe. And if there's anything on them, like oils, or even something abrasive, the dish soap will create a barrier around it to help prevent scratching, and also to carry it away when rinsing. Less gentle soaps and detergents could be damaging, though. Water to rinse off any particles, and a microfiber cloth might be fine, but you'll want to periodically wash the cloth with a gentle detergent or it will become saturated. You'll also want to shake it before use to ensure it doesn't have any particles on it that could be abrasive.

This but without the microfiber cloth to dry them. Use dawn, give them a shake to get the water droplets off, then let them air dry.
Good up to the point of rubbing "glasses" with a cloth. Lenses are now usually more durable plastics which are lighter and have a higher index of refraction. They are usually coated to improve transmission of light and reduce reflection. This coating repels water, which is easily absorbed into a paper towel without rubbing the lens. Never rub anything in the lens except a clean dish soap without lotion for your hands.
I have been doing this for years using original Dawn with a clean handi wipe. Then I dry them with a clean paper towel. This is the only method that leaves my glasses spotless.
