How to remove scratches from glasses and restore their new, shiny appearance: a simple recipe to follow
Procedure:
Begin by washing your hands thoroughly to remove any dirt that may have accumulated on the lenses during cleaning.
Then, rinse your glasses under a stream of lukewarm water to loosen any dust particles and make the next step easier.
Place a small amount of mild detergent on your fingertip and gently rub the lenses, frame, and temples. Avoid using regular soap, as it may contain harsh chemicals that could damage the lenses.
Rinse the lenses thoroughly with lukewarm water to remove all traces of detergent. Next, dry the lenses and frame with a microfiber cloth using gentle strokes. The microfiber will absorb moisture and prevent scratches.
With the same cloth, gently polish the lenses until they are completely dry and shiny to remove any remaining marks, scratches, or smudges.
Additional tips:
Avoid applying excessive heat, such as from a hairdryer or flame, as this could damage the lens coating and worsen scratches.
If the scratches are deep or none of the above methods work, you may need to take your glasses to a professional for repair or lens replacement.
