How to Care for Your Eyeglasses - Eye Station Opticians

A good pair of glasses is an investment in how you see and look every day. With a little care, your frames and lenses can stay scratch-free and crystal clear for years.

The Right Way to Clean Them

Rinse with lukewarm water, apply a drop of mild soap, and dry with a clean microfibre cloth. Avoid tissues, shirt tails and paper towels — they contain fibres that scratch coatings over time.

Daily Habits That Protect Your Lenses

  • Always use both hands to put on and remove glasses
  • Store them in a hard case when not worn
  • Never rest them lens-down on a surface
  • Keep them away from heat and car dashboards

When to Visit Your Optician

Loose screws, bent arms or nose pads that no longer sit right can usually be fixed in minutes. Regular adjustments keep your glasses comfortable and your vision aligned.

Eye Station offers free lifetime adjustments and cleaning for frames bought with us. Pop in any time.
