The essential care of eyewear cleaning cloths
To take good care of your glasses, it is essential to clean them regularly, especially with the help of cleaning cloths.
However, it is important to ensure that the cleaning rag used is itself clean so that it can perform its function properly.
Here's why it's imperative that your eyewear cleaning cloth is clean and how to properly wash it without damaging it.
The imperative need to wash one's cleaning cloths
Glasses are a piece of equipment that is often used every day and can therefore easily get dirty due to external elements or rubbing against the skin.
It is therefore essential to clean them regularly, both the lenses and the frame, mainly using a microfibre cloth.
However, if the latter is itself soiled, it will not be able to clean your glasses properly and may even soil them further.
In fact, when it is dirty, the cleaning cloth will transmit the dirt particles to the glasses on which it is rubbed.
In addition, when a dirty microfibre cloth is rubbed over the lenses, it does not restore their original clarity as well as a clean cloth can.
The dirty cloth may even dull the lens even more, or even scratch it slightly.
However, a microfiber cloth for glasses will tend to get dirty quite easily.
Indeed, it is not always stored as well as it should be on a daily basis, due to lack of time or attention.
And even when stored in the spectacle case, the cleaning cloth still needs to be cleaned regularly since it takes up all the dirt it removes from the glasses.
How to wash my cleaning cloths
Once the need to clean your eyewear cleaning cloths has been taken into account, you need to know how to do it.
Indeed, it's necessary to clean the microfibre cloth well so that it does not get damaged and that it regains its initial effectiveness.
Indeed, as well as knowing how to properly clean your glasses, it is imperative to know the correct procedure for your cleaning cloth.
To do this properly, it is advisable to use cold water and mild soap.
The microfiber cloth should be left to soak for a few minutes and then rinsed again with cold water.
Although effective, cleaning it in a washing machine can damage the cloth if it is done too often.
Finally, a glasses cleaning cloth that is too damaged or too worn must be replaced.
Do not hesitate to ask your Optical Center optician for a new one and make sure you wash your new cleaning cloth regularly.
