Here are some advices that aim to provide you easy measures to keep your sunglasses to be the nicest pairs around.

1. Have regular inspections.

It’s whether after you use them or you find time to see your collection. Make sure to always inspect the screws, the frame, and the lenses. Also try to wear each pair in front of the mirror so you could see misalignment's and check for loose hinges. In this case, you can always go back to the eyewear store for frame adjustments or hinge tightening. But it can also be more helpful if you have your own precision kit for DIY works.

2.  Make  sure to clean.

Clean your sunglasses especially after use because our sweat and skin oil may cause damage on coatings and finishes on the frame and the lenses particularly the polarized ones. You can always use microfiber lens cloth for a quick procedure. But whenever there’s warm water and soap around, have them rinsed to also avoid dust accumulation. Use recommended cleaning solution by your optician or a lotion-free dish washing liquid for home remedy or to remove skin oil then use a lint-free cloth for drying.

3. Use proper and safe storage.

Always have your sunglasses kept in a protective case mainly a cushioned one to prevent scratches and damage from impacts. Also don’t leave them unprotected in places with intense heat like car dashboards aside that it may drop once you pull the brake while driving. And whenever you have to remove them, always use your both hands and lay them on a flat surface on an upside down position. If you have a large collection of sunglasses, try to buy a glass display and place it somewhere safe in the house.
