Rinse visible grit off lenses before wiping. Use a clean microfiber cloth and a cleaner that the lens maker recommends. A dry rough cloth can drag grit across a coating.

Store the pair in a case when you are not wearing it, especially in a bag with keys or other hard objects. Avoid leaving it in extreme heat unless the maker says the frame and coatings can handle it.

If the temples feel loose, check the maker's adjustment instructions or ask an optician. Forcing a hinge or bending an unfamiliar material can damage a frame.
