Looking After Your Glasses
10 ways to care for your glasses and sunglasses
- Never place your glasses with the lenses down
- Use a Hilco mini-screwdriver to keep the screws tight
- Keep them in a case when you are not using them
- Avoid leaving plastic sunglasses on the car dashboard in hot weather as they
may distort
- Clean the lenses with a lint-free cloth - Hilco micro fibre cloths are ideal
and available from your optician
- Always use a specially formulated lens cleaner to clean your lenses. Many coated
lenses will smear with unsuitable cleaning solutions. We recommend Hilco Crystal
Clear, which is available from your optician
- Should the fit become loose - return them to your optician who will be able to
make simple adjustments to make them fit properly again
- Always use both hands when removing your frames. This prevents snagging and reduces
the chance of breaking a side temple
- Wearing your sunglasses on the top of your head may look chic, but it stretches
them and they won't fit as a result
- Send your sunglasses to us once a year for their annual overhaul - Click here.
