All you need is lukewarm water, around 35 ºC, and clean hands. Place the glasses under the tap and let the water remove all the dirt. Do not use dishwasher or detergent because they contain solvents and chemicals to remove grease and can damage the lenses. You can use a neutral, fragrance-free soap, but we do not recommend it; firstly, because a good splash of water is enough, and secondly, because you may think that your hand soap is safe to use when it actually is not. Precautionary principle. Once all the dirt has been washed off the lenses, pre-dry the lenses to make sure they are clean or else some dirt might be left on the lenses and scratch them. Then shake off as much excess water as you can. You can also tap the lenses gently against your body, holding them by a temple. Use the microfiber pouch or cloth to dry the glasses, but make sure they are clean. Do not use kitchen paper, toilet paper, cotton cloths, etc. because these fabrics may contain hard fibers that can damage the glasses. You can use the cold setting on a hair dryer, but don't even think of exposing the lenses to heat.
