How to Care for Your DIFF Eyewear Frames
Your DIFF frames are designed with quality and style in mind, and with a little extra care, they’ll stay looking their best for years to come! Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you keep your frames in top shape and preserve that just-out-of-the-box feel.
1. Clean Your Lenses the Right Way
To avoid scratches and smudges, follow these simple tips for cleaning your lenses:
- Use a Microfiber Cloth: Always use the microfiber cloth provided with your DIFF eyewear to wipe away dust, oils, or smudges. Avoid paper towels or tissues, as they can scratch the lenses.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Stick to lens-safe cleaning solutions. Spray a small amount on the lens and gently clean with your microfiber cloth for a spotless finish.
- Skip Soap and Household Cleaners: Regular soap or household cleaners can damage lens coatings. Stick with cleaners formulated for eyewear to protect your lenses.
2. Store Your Frames Safely
Proper storage can make a huge difference in your frames’ longevity:
- Use the Case: Always store your eyewear in the case provided by DIFF. This will keep them safe from dust, scratches, and accidental drops.
- Keep Away from Heat: High temperatures (such as leaving them in a hot car) can warp or damage your frames. Store them in a cool, dry place whenever possible.
- Avoid Placing Face Down: When setting your glasses down, place them on their arms instead of lens-side down to prevent scratching.
3. Handle with Care
Everyday handling can impact the durability of your frames, so follow these best practices:
- Use Both Hands to Remove: Always use both hands to take your glasses off. This prevents stretching and keeps the frame from becoming loose or unbalanced.
- Keep Away from Chemicals: Lotions, hair sprays, and perfumes can damage lens coatings and frames. Let these products dry before putting on your glasses.
- Please don't wear your glasses on your head: Avoid wearing them on top of your head or pushing them up with your hair, as this can stretch the frames or cause them to lose shape.
4. Make Minor Adjustments with Caution
Over time, frames may need a bit of adjustment, but it’s best to avoid DIY fixes that could harm your eyewear:
- Visit an Optician: If you feel your frames loosening, skip the DIY adjustments and visit an optician who can professionally adjust your glasses for a perfect fit.
5. Routine Maintenance
Regularly caring for your DIFF eyewear will help them last longer and look great:
- Check for Loose Screws: Every few months, check for loose screws on the temple arms and tighten them gently with an eyeglass screwdriver if necessary.
- Replace Nose Pads When Needed: If your nose pads show signs of wear, visit an optician to have them replaced to keep your glasses comfortable and fresh.
