Have you ever thought about pouring dish soap on your glasses lenses? In this article, I’ll explain why this trick works and reveal two hidden benefits. You probably know that glasses accumulate grease and dust after a few days of use. While you can use a cloth to wipe them, this method can actually damage the lenses in the long run. Here’s a simple and effective solution to thoroughly clean your glasses.

Steps to Clean Your Glasses with Dishwashing Liquid

  1. Prepare a bowl of water  : Fill a bowl with warm water. Dip your glasses in the water for a few seconds to allow dirt particles to loosen from the lenses.
  2. Add dishwashing liquid  : Pour a drop of dishwashing liquid on each lens. Dishwashing liquid contains surfactants that effectively remove grease and dirt.
  3. Rub gently  : Gently massage each lens for 10 to 20 seconds. This helps dissolve stubborn residue without scratching the lenses.
  4. Rinse with clean water  : After scrubbing, rinse your glasses thoroughly under running water to remove any dishwashing liquid residue.
  5. Dry with a soft cloth  : Use a clean, soft microfiber cloth to dry your glasses using circular motions.

Two Unsuspected Advantages of This Method

  1. Deep Cleaning  : Dishwashing liquid not only removes dust, but also grease and fingerprints, leaving your lenses perfectly clean.
  2. Fog Protection  : After cleaning your glasses, you can apply a thin layer of petroleum jelly to the lenses. This creates a protective barrier that prevents fogging, especially in cold or rainy weather.

Bonus Tip: Protect Your Glasses from Scratches

If your glasses have light scratches, you can repeat the cleaning process with dish soap and petroleum jelly several times to smooth out the blemishes. This will restore clarity to your lenses and extend their life.

Why is this tip great?

  • Economical  : Use products you already have at home.
  • Effective  : Cleans thoroughly without damaging lenses.
  • Versatile  : Also protects against fogging and scratches.
