Wet the sunglasses before cleaning. Never clean Oakley glasses lenses while dry because you could scratch the delicate Iridium coating. Use mild soap and water with a soft towel to buff the scratch out in a circular motion. Buff stubborn scratches with a mild toothpaste and cotton ball.
Likewise, can you buff out scratches on Ray Ban sunglasses? Are the lenses glass or plastic? If they are deep scratches you can not remove them. If they are glass lenses you may be able to use a buffing wheel and polish very carefully and if plastic, simply buffing them with toothpaste may do the trick.
Secondly, is it OK to wear scratched sunglasses?
Scratches on your lenses wont harm your vision, but they can tire out as your eyes as you strain to see through a defective lens, Dr. Ozerov says. These vision boosters will improve your eyesight (no carrot-eating required).
Why does toothpaste remove scratches?
Toothpaste marketed as non-abrasive still contains a small amount of an abrasive component, in order to be effective for cleaning the teeth. This abrasive component gently removes a thin layer of plastic from the lens, thus leveling out the surface and removing scratches.
