Rubbing dry lenses with a shirt or paper towel may grind dust into the surface. ZEISS recommends lukewarm rinsing, suitable cleaner and clean microfiber. Special coatings and frames may need optician-specific care.

Wash your hands and hold the glasses by the frame; avoid rubbing dry lenses.
Rinse both sides with lukewarm, not hot, water to remove loose particles first.
Use a lens-approved cleaner or a small amount of suitable mild neutral cleanser, rubbing gently with fingertips.
Lightly clean nose pads and frame crevices; avoid trapping excess liquid around screws or special coatings.
Rinse off cleaning residue and blot dry with a clean microfiber lens cloth.
Wash the microfiber cloth separately to remove grit and store glasses in a protective case; consult an optician for damaged coatings.
