IMPORTANT CARE AND CLEANING TIPS FOR EYEGLASSES
Glasses can accumulate dirt, smudges and dust throughout the day. Regardless of how often you use your glasses, is important be proactive in order to keep them clean and to protect the lenses.
How to Clean Your Glasses
Before you start handling and cleaning your glasses, make sure to properly clean your hands in order to get rid of dirt, grime, and oils. Next, you must rinse the lenses with lukewarm water. Remember to not use hot water or any chemicals as this will cause the coatings of the lenses to dissipate over time. The safest solution to clean your lenses with is the spray cleaner that came with your glasses. You can also use a drop of liquid dish soap on your fingers to gently rub away the buildup on your lenses. Ensure you also wash the nose pads and frames with your solution aside from the lenses. Lastly to finish, give the glasses a final rinse in lukewarm water and thoroughly dry them with a lint-free cloth. During the day, make sure you carry a lint free cloth in your eye glasses case in order to touch up your glasses and maintain their cleanliness throughout the day so that you can consistently see clearly.
While cleaning your eye glasses is an easy task, there are a few common mistakes that you should avoid doing while cleaning your glasses.
Here are a few things that you should avoid:
It might seem more convenient to clean your lenses with the hem of your shirt as needed, but clothing can damage your eye glasses. The small pieces of dust or dirt on your shirt can scratch the lenses. Also, avoid using paper products such as napkins, paper towels or tissues as they carry dust.
Never use harsh cleaning products to clean your lenses as they could deteriorate or damage the coating on the lenses. For example, avoid using products such as ammonia based cleaners, window cleaner, bleach or vinegar. Lastly, if the water you are using to clean your lenses is too hot, it can damage certain types of coatings that have been applied to the lenses.

The top 3 most common types of eye injuries and what to do If they happen to you
1- Corneal abrasion (Scratched Eye)
Some of the frequent causes of corneal abrasions are rubbing your eye with a foreign entity such as sand or dust, and getting poked in the eye. When a corneal abrasion happens, the patient will experience discomfort, redness in the eye, and sensitivity to light.
If suffering from a corneal abrasion or scratched eye, do not rub the eye or patch the eye. Putting an eye patch over the eye may create an ideal environment for fungus and other bacteria to grow, as fungus and bacteria strive and grow in cool, damp and dark places.
Seek professional medical care as soon as possible by going to your optometrist or the emergency room. At our Maple optometrist location, we have optometrist on premises.
2- Foreign Objects and/or Penetration in the eye
In the case that a foreign object such as shards of metal, or a piece of metal such as a fish hook enter your eye, seek professional medical attention right away. Do not attempt to remove or move the foreign object(s) in your eye under an circumstance as you will most likely cause more harm and damage to your eye.
The eye is a very sensitive area of the body. Cover the eye with an eye shield or you can loosely tape a paper cup over the eye for temporary protection until you reach a medical professional.
3- Chemical Burn in the Eye
Getting splashed in the eye with a liquid other than clean pure water can be frightening. In some circumstances, some substances can cause serious injury or permanent damage to the eye or your vision, while others may burn and sting but ultimately will not cause permanent damage. Depending on the chemical makeup of the substance that has entered your eye, the long term and short term effects can differ.
Acid: If acid has been splashed into your eye, you will experience instant redness and burning but can be washed out pretty easily
Alkali: If splashed in the eye with an alkali substance, you will not feel as much irritation, burning, or redness as an acid, but they are far more dangerous.
Examples of alkali substances are toilet bowl cleaners, chalk dust, and oven cleaners.
Chemical exposure to the eye is usually caused by the chemical being splashed into the eye, rubbing your eye and transferring them chemical
from your hand to your eye, or by getting sprayed in the eye with an aerosol or spray bottle.
If ever splashed in the eye with a chemical, place your head under a stream of lukewarm water and let the water run gently into your eye and down your face for 15 minutes. Ensure you contact an eye care professional as soon as possible or go to an emergency clinic to receive medical attention.

What is an eyeglass prescription?
An eyeglass prescription is a prescription written by a vision professional and authorizes a licensed optician to provide eyeglasses to you. An eyeglass prescription can be issued only by an optometrist or a physician, who may be an ophthalmologist. In Ontario, only optometrists, physicians and opticians are authorized to sell prescription eyeglasses. If the eye exam indicates that corrective lenses are necessary, the prescriber generally writes a prescription for an optical device. The parameters indicated on the prescription include the dioptric power of each lens to be made in order to correct the visual blur.
The prescription you are provided with by the optometrist is based on the information retrieved from your eye examination. In order to accurately determine how your vision can be corrected, the optometrist will consider:
- your overall health history, family history and your day to day visual demands
- how your eyes work together
- the general health of your eyes
- the lenses required for you to achieve the best vision and focus
Prescriptions given after an eye examination may vary from time to time depending on the measurements taken by the optometrist. Minor variations in the prescription are normal and may not affect the way you see.
