Eyeglass Care and Maintenance Tips

At Youtop Optical, we are committed to making sure that you get the most out of your glasses. In order to help you maintain the quality and longevity of your glasses, we have put together these valuable care tips.

1. Cleaning your lenses:

  • Gently rinse your glasses with lukewarm water prior to cleaning them in order to remove any particles that could cause abrasion.
  • Use a microfiber cleaning cloth or a lens cleaning solution to wipe smudges and dirt away from the lenses
  • Do not use tissues, paper towels, or clothing, as they can scratch the lenses.

2. Handling your glasses:

  • Use both hands to put on or remove your glasses. This will help to avoid bending the frame.
  • Avoid pushing or pulling on one side of the frame, as doing so can cause misalignment.


3. Storing your glasses:

  • When you are not using your glasses, store them in a protective case to prevent damage and scratches.
  • Avoid placing your glasses face down, as doing so can also cause the lenses to scratch.


4. Frame adjustments:

  • If your glasses become loose or uncomfortable, visit your eyewear professional to have them perform adjustments on the frame.
  • Do not attempt to adjust the frames yourself, as doing so can lead to damage.


5. Protection:

  • When you are not wearing your glasses, keep them away from extreme temperatures.
  • Avoid exposing them to harsh chemicals such as hairspray or household cleaning supplies.


6. Regular check-ups:

  • Schedule regular eye exams with an optometrist to ensure that your prescription information is up to date and that your glasses are still a good fit for your needs.
  • By following these tips, you can help make sure that your glasses remain in excellent condition and provide you with clear vision for years to come.
