How to Keep Your RX Glasses Clean Without Damaging Them
Your RX glasses are a vital part of your game, helping you see every shot clearly. Keeping them clean is essential, but using the wrong methods or products can damage lenses and coatings—reducing clarity and comfort.
At Blinded Wear, we want your prescription sports eyewear to perform at their best for years. That’s why we recommend these trusted cleaning tips that protect your lenses and frames, keeping you sharp on the court.
Why Proper Cleaning Matters
RX lenses often come with special coatings—like anti-reflective, scratch-resistant, or blue-light filters—that improve vision and comfort. Harsh chemicals, abrasive cloths, or excessive pressure can degrade these coatings, leading to scratches or fogging.
Damaged lenses mean less visual clarity and can hurt your performance, especially during fast-paced pickleball matches.
Safe Cleaning Steps for Your RX Glasses
- Rinse with Lukewarm Water: Gently rinse lenses under lukewarm water to remove dust and grit that could scratch.
- Use a Mild Soap: Apply a tiny drop of lotion-free, fragrance-free dish soap to your fingers. Rub lenses gently on both sides.
- Rinse Again: Rinse thoroughly to remove all soap residue, which can cause smudges.
- Dry with a Microfiber Cloth: Use a clean microfiber cloth—never paper towels, shirts, or tissues—to gently pat lenses dry.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Never use window cleaners, alcohol, or ammonia-based products.
Additional Tips to Protect Your RX Glasses
- Always Store in Your Hard Case: When not in use, keep your glasses in the protective case included with every Blinded Wear RX order to prevent scratches and impact damage.
- Clean Microfiber Cloth Regularly: Wash your cloth often to avoid trapping dirt and oils that can scratch lenses.
- Avoid Heat Exposure: Don’t leave glasses in hot cars or direct sunlight for long periods; heat can warp frames and coatings.
What to Do If Your Lenses Get Damaged
If your lenses do get scratched or damaged, remember Blinded Wear offers a lifetime unlimited warranty on RX frames and lenses. You can send your glasses back and receive 50% credit toward a replacement pair, no questions asked.
