My glasses are constantly dirty?!


Question: My glasses are constantly dirty?
Hi i have had my glasses for about a year and it's weird lately they are constantly with smudges on the lenses and dirty i clean them and within seconds they are are smudgy again, they are not scratched or anything. I tried cleaning them with water but it didn't really do anything. Why do the get dirty so quickly lately? and how can i clean them better? do i just need new ones?

Answers:

I work in an optometry clinic and the optometrists advises patients to have their glasses cleaned not with water but with a cleaning fluid made specially for glasses. Now it may seem an additional expense for you but your glasses also comes with a cloth inside your cases and these always comes in handy. Use this cloth all the time for tissues creates abrasions or scratches to the lenses. If the cloth gets dirty overtime, washing it with shampoo will work wonders (the cloth, that is). Hope this will help you not to have new glasses instead.



Many times the cause of your problem is poor quality AR (ant-reflective) coating. If this is the case nothing can be done for your lenses. You just need to get a better AR coating next time or not get it at all.
