How to Protect Your Prescription Glasses from Everyday Damage

Introduction

Your prescription glasses are designed to be worn every day, but everyday life can expose them to bumps, drops and accidental damage.

Fortunately, a few simple habits can go a long way towards keeping your glasses in excellent condition.

Use a protective case

Whenever you're not wearing your glasses, store them in a hard protective case.

This is one of the easiest and most effective ways to prevent accidental damage.

Handle them with both hands

Taking your glasses off with one hand can gradually put uneven pressure on the frame.

Using both hands helps keep the frame properly aligned and reduces unnecessary strain on the hinges.

Avoid risky storage

Don't leave your glasses loose in a handbag, backpack or coat pocket where they can be crushed or scratched by other items.

A protective case offers far better protection.

Keep them away from children and pets

Curious children and playful pets can easily damage glasses without meaning to.

When you're not wearing them, place them somewhere safe and out of reach.

Clean them correctly

Dust and grit can scratch lenses if they're wiped away incorrectly.

Use a clean microfibre cloth and suitable lens cleaner to keep your glasses looking their best.

Small habits, lasting results

Looking after your glasses doesn't take much effort, but it can help them stay comfortable, attractive and reliable for much longer.
