How to Care for Sunglasses: Make Every Pair Last

Sunglasses die three ways: scratched lenses, sat-on frames and loose hinges. All three are preventable with under a minute of care a day.

Clean like an optician

Rinse first — dust is an abrasive, and dry-wiping grinds it across the lens. Then a drop of lotion-free soap, warm water, air dry or microfibre. Shirt hems and paper towels are how coatings get ruined.

Case discipline

The case isn't optional. Bags, car consoles and pockets are where lenses meet keys. A hard case in the bag and a soft pouch in the car covers every situation.

Heat is the silent killer

Dashboards hit 80°C in summer — enough to warp acetate and delaminate lens coatings. Never leave a good pair in the car. Hot days, they ride with you.

Hinges and fit

Loose hinges mean the screws are backing out — a 30-second tighten with an eyewear screwdriver stops the slide before frames loosen permanently. Fit drifted? Any optician re-adjusts acetate in minutes, usually free. And when it's time for a new pair, Best Sellers and New Arrivals are stocked.
