The Ultimate Guide to Caring for Your Premium Eyewear

Your premium eyewear is an investment in both style and vision. With proper care, your LENSMAKE frames and lenses will maintain their beauty and functionality for years to come. Here's everything you need to know about caring for your eyewear.

Daily Cleaning Best Practices

Use the Right Cleaning Solution

Always use a lens cleaning solution specifically designed for eyewear. Avoid household cleaners, which can damage lens coatings. A gentle spray of eyeglass cleaner followed by a soft microfiber cloth is your best approach.

The Proper Cleaning Technique

Rinse your glasses under lukewarm water to remove dust and debris before wiping. This prevents scratching from particles trapped on the lens surface. Gently wipe in circular motions with a clean microfiber cloth.

What to Avoid

Never use paper towels, tissues, or your clothing to clean your lenses—these materials can scratch delicate lens coatings. Also avoid hot water, which can damage frame materials and lens treatments.

Proper Storage

Always Use Your Case

When you're not wearing your glasses, store them in the protective case that came with your LENSMAKE eyewear. This prevents scratches, dust accumulation, and accidental damage.

Avoid Extreme Temperatures

Don't leave your eyewear in hot cars, near heaters, or in direct sunlight for extended periods. Extreme temperatures can warp frames and damage lens coatings.

Handling Your Eyewear

Use Both Hands

Always put on and remove your glasses using both hands. This maintains proper frame alignment and prevents the frames from becoming loose or misaligned over time.

Place Lenses Up

When setting your glasses down, always place them with the lenses facing up to prevent scratches on the lens surface.

Regular Maintenance

Tighten Loose Screws

Check your frames periodically for loose screws. A small eyeglass repair kit can help you tighten them, or visit any LENSMAKE partner location for professional adjustments.

Professional Adjustments

If your frames feel loose or uncomfortable, don't try to bend them yourself. Visit our network of eyewear professionals for complimentary adjustments and fittings.

Special Care for Different Lens Types

Anti-Reflective Coatings

Lenses with anti-reflective coatings require gentle care. Use only approved cleaning solutions and soft cloths to maintain the coating's effectiveness.

Polarized and Tinted Lenses

These specialty lenses benefit from the same gentle cleaning approach. Avoid abrasive materials that could damage the polarization or tint.
