How to Clean Eyeglasses on Your Phone
If you are like me, you have at least one pair of eyeglasses – sometimes two. They can be great fashion accessories, but they can also help you see clearly. So, it is important to keep them clean and free from dirt and grime that could impede your vision.
1. You can use a microfiber cloth to wipe down your glasses.
The most effective way to clean your glasses is to use a soft, lint-free cloth. These can be purchased at optical stores and online. They are gentle and safe for all types of eyeglasses, including those with anti-reflective coatings.
2. You can use a cloth to wipe down your phone’s screen, but it’s best not to use a regular, cotton cloth. A cotton cloth can leave a residue on your phone’s screen or it may scratch the phone’s coating.
3. You can also use a spray cleaner to wipe down your screen.
It is possible to use a spray cleaner to wipe down your iPhone’s screen, but it’s best to use a microfiber cloth or an Apple-approved cleaning solution. This will ensure that the cleaner doesn’t leave a residue on your screen and that it won’t scratch your phone’s coating.
4. You can also use a cleaner to wipe down your laptop’s screen.
While it is possible to use a cleaning solution or pre-moistened wipes to safely and effectively wipe down your laptop’s screen, these products are not designed for the delicate coating on your screen. In addition, the cleaning solutions can leave behind a streaky mess on your screen, making it difficult to see anything on your screen.
5. You can clean your glasses with dish soap
Dishwashing soap is an inexpensive and easy option to use for cleaning eyeglasses. This dishwashing soap is sulfate-free and will strip away oils and grime on your glasses.
6. You can make your own lens cleaner
While you can buy a spray-on cleaner at an optometrist or drugstore, it is much easier and more affordable to make your own. To make the homemade cleaner, combine 1 part alcohol to 10 parts water and mix well until it reaches a consistency that is easily sprayed on your eyeglasses.
You can also use a mixture of soap, dishwashing liquid, and water to create your own lens cleaner for your eyeglasses. Just make sure you don’t add too much soap or it may foam up when you mix it with water.
7. You can also clean your glasses with rubbing alcohol.
Rubbing alcohol, also known as 70% isopropyl alcohol, is a safe alternative to other chemical cleaners and is available at your local pharmacy or grocery store. It is a great all-purpose cleaner and will remove smudges and dust from your lenses.
8. You can also clean your eyeglasses with a diluted solution of rubbing alcohol and water.
If you are unsure of the best way to clean your eyeglasses or your prescription has expired, it is best to visit an optician or optometrist for a professional clean. This will not only improve your vision but will help extend the life of your eyeglasses as well.
