Brilio.net - Glasses are a common tool used to help improve vision clarity. Glasses are equipped with two lenses designed for the right and left eyes. However, over time, these lenses often become dirty and stained. Dirt can come from fingerprints when holding the lenses or dust when used outdoors. In addition to correcting refractive problems such as nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism, glasses also function to protect the eyes from the dangers of UV rays and excessive blue light. Beyond its main function, glasses are also part of a lifestyle, complementing the appearance with various designs and styles that can be adjusted to personal preferences.
Eyeglass lenses are also prone to scratches. These scratches usually appear when the lenses are wiped with a cloth with a rough surface, which can interfere with the comfort of wearing glasses.
