How do I clean my eyeglasses and sunglasses properly?

Having good personal hygiene is the first step to protect yourself. But while you are washing your hands regularly, do not forget to wash your glasses too. Cleaning your glasses daily not only helps to keep it clear from germs and viruses, but it also keeps your eyewear in tip top condition.

What about contact lenses?

For those of you wearing contact lenses, consider switching to glasses for a while. The less you touch your eyes, the better, as you considerably lower the risk of exposing yourself to germs and viruses. So keep your eyes protected during these stressful times with a pair of stylish Nikon frames!

Can't take the heat

Do not leave your lenses in places where the temperature changes rapidly or where temperatures are over 60°C as it may alter the optical quality and/or cause cracks on the lenses.

Never leave lenses on the dashboard or anywhere in a car, as temperatures can rise exponentially.

Remove your glasses before going in a sauna.

Other examples of potential heat damage include opening an oven, BBQ or wood stove, placing them on top of a radiator, exposure to direct and prolonged heat from a blow dryer, etc.
