Using a small eyeglass cloth to wipe glasses can be very harmful

In daily life, many citizens who wear glasses are accustomed to wiping their glasses with eyeglass cloths, especially in the current cold winter. After entering the room from the cold outdoors, they cannot help but pick up the eyeglass cloth and wipe their glasses. However, recently, reporters have learned that long-term use of eyeglass cloths to wipe glasses is not only detrimental to the maintenance of glasses, but also to the health of the human eye.

Industry experts told reporters that there is a lot of dust on the eyeglass lenses, which cannot be seen by the naked eye. If you dry wipe with a glasses cloth, these dust particles will rub back and forth on the lens, like sandpaper, and over time the lens will become blurry. If the lens is dirty or has oil stains, rinse it with tap water and add some detergent. Rinse with clean water, then use a napkin to absorb the water dry, so that the washed lenses will not damage the film layer.

The correct use of eyeglass cloth is to wrap glasses, so it is usually placed in the eyeglass case to avoid friction between the lens and the eyeglass case. Meanwhile, if the eyeglass cloth itself is not clean and used to wipe the lenses, it can also contaminate the lenses, thereby endangering eye health.
