How to clean microfiber cloths for glasses. What kind of mild soap i can use

[@kathym6603]

For fuss budgets like me... we use distilled water! Will be making sure it is COLD!

[@DoctorEyeHealth]

Do you distill it yourself?

[@robertsmentkowski312]

Good idea. I’ll place my Britta over the kitchen sink. Our water Is mineralized. We can see mineral precipitation from melting ice cubes made from tapwater

[@77dris]

Uh, you distill it. @realduckalicious

[@itshappening2012]

No soap?

[@sachin_gupta6]

which type of soap should I use, is it okay if I use hand wash liquid

[@ActionBastard88]

i hear dawn dish detergent is fine

[@eliasziad7864]

Hey, I got a question, can I use dish soap to clean microfiber cloth?

[@schen5425]

Yes Dawn but with barely warm water...cold.

[@zalafinari]

I have the same bottle of "Dr. Jesus" soap but I prefer peppermint. It's useful for cleaning a lot of things, including myself. I like using it as a body wash :)

[@glorygloryholeallelujah]

*”Dr. Jesus soap”* 😂

[@Falsimer]

This is precisely what I needed, including confirmation that these little things are the same material as bigger microfiber cloths. Those instructions were the same (although did allow for warm water if hand washing,) but the towel looked different so I wasn't sure!

[@yumakuga2066]

About the soap, is dish soap fine? Or hand soap?

[@MeLMeLMox]

I think so i've been using dish soap since i first learned to clean my microfiber i also put my microfiber through warm water so fibers loosen releasing any dirt or dust that is trapped in between the fiber so far my glasses have been fine

[@A-RonV_V]

@@MeLMeLMoxso warm water is better?

[@tydshiin5783]

​@@A-RonV_Vwarm is a bit elusive I'll suggest like lukewarm where it's like not freezing cold but cold enough to feel it when touching it in a warm room Warm will likely expand the fibers and attract more stuff than you want it to and scratch up your lenses

[@ShadowsandCityLights]

Looks like he's using castile soap.

Yeah it will clean your glasses much better after too wont leave any streaks and glare

Same here! I was about to buy new ones when I thought wait a min let me trying washing these first 😅

[@eyeballz76]

Seriously wish I saw this video sooner!! I just been throwing my clothes out because I didn't know why after washing in the laundry that stopped working because of the fabric softener.

[@blairtaylor9552]

large mason jar with warm distilled water and a few drops of dawn. Add microfiber(s) and shake vigorously. Rinse well with distilled...

[@Seema_Yadav143]

Which soap is good for cleaning in less price and not harmed to my glass ? Plzzz reply as soon as possible.....

[@schen5425]

Dawn dish soap is the best! If using a bar of soap, personally, I use my Cetaphil cleansing bar. No fragrance in it, just plain.

[@anonymousfuck9320]

@@schen5425 yeah thats the best for both glasses and cleaning windows

[@katrinawilliams7912]

I don't put cloths in the dryer. The micro fiber attracts & collects the lint. If when you clean your glasses they have lint, its because of the dryer.

[@jamison19824]

I am new to wearing reading glasses, I can't get over thinking my eyeglasses are constantly dirty, I hope I can get past it 😕

[@PlumasCountyCalif]

Reading glasses get dirty FAST. Pick them up wrong and you've got a thumb print in the middle of the lens! Just wash them in a little Dawn dish soap and dry them with a microfiber cloth. When the cloths get dirty: wash them in Dawn with warm water, rinse and let them hang dry. Don't throw them in the clothes dryer!

[@brad3d]

Is dish soap OK? Or antibacterial liquid hand soap?

[@thirstrated]

Where can you get these cloths from?

[@dilettacatena]

shouldn't we let the cloth soak in the detergent for a bit?

[@mrQuyenArchive]

Does this cloth work apple iphone or other iDevice?

[@1badvyking]

Great tip. Thanks

[@riteishpanchal141]

Can we use Handwash Liquid for the same

[@reekidfan1]

Can I use Dawn dish soap or antibacterial soap?

[@empty-8500]

Bro I am just 15 year old . My eyes are good (normal) My doctor say that my eyes are normal , does not have any problem in my eyes. But I use more computer and Mobile so I want a glasses to save my eyes from getting affected by computer and Mobile Today my eyes are normal but after some months I think will get weak because I see 6 hour computer screen in school or also some hour on home. What glasses should I use ?

[@jorgenkristiansen4852]

staring at a screen doesn't damage your eyes at all. That's a myth. Also, wtf do you mean 'what glasses should I use?', you don't pick.

[@ynyfoodservice4456]

If you’re gonna get anything just get some blue light/computer glasses. You don’t need a prescription pair.

[@IlmiMulhid]

You need to Learn some eye exercises, like blinking your eyes consciously while on screen, make sure to look away for 1 minutes every 15-20 minutes...wash ur eyes with cold water... computers usually cause dryness which cause blurry vision. Search more and you'll know what you can do more.... You can also buy a Kindle paper white if u've money.😊

[@diana4043]

Thank you!!!

[@BoomVang]

I am one voice of decades of experience that harsh handling seems to cause no harm. I set the machine to hot water with enough oxiclean to strip paint. Then to save extra quarters I dry so hot it almost makes charcoal, yet the microfibers work out fine (not scratchy). I do have problems hand washing because my cheap handsoap has high residue.

[@cynthiamccullough3718]

LOL

[@AlamarMeraglim]

Bought scratch resistant lens all bells and whistles they STILL got scratches. Ugh.. super expensive... How can i remove or seal them?

[@Mrnobody9099]

Whats a microfiber cloth and how do you get jt

[@caiitlinboland1046]

What kind of soap are you using in this video

[@uglyography.]

It's Dr bronners Castile soap

[@hematharanir889]

Doc ....pls speak about dilated pupils

[@ZaySpamz]

Dose dish soap have fabric softener

[@pawsplash1218]

No harm in washing it in hot water once...right? (New to glasses in general here, had mine for 3 months now)

[@PMitchell106]

Hot water will cause the microfibers to fuse, making them hard, less absorbent, and more likely to scratch.

[@michael-k.]

Only warm and cold

[@winterberry3412]

Can't we use the blue dawn dish soap? I thought that wasa life hack?

[@didamnesia3575]

I prefer a small bucket or mixing bowl and a drying rack.

[@kathyk8310]

Thanks!

[@DoctorEyeHealth]

No problem!

[@cynthiamccullough3718]

I put mine in a small mesh laundry bag and throw it in with a load of whites in warm water, then I hang it on a drying rack.

[@JaneParkerBowls]

can i just use hand soap to wash it?

[@annfelicetti4005]

I have a question about the numbers on your lenses. Do they have to be there? My old glasses didn't have them, and I like those better. I have progressive with anti glare lenses.

[@Shaneroberts360]

Could you have it with clothes as well

[@Undefinedde]

Can I do eye exercises and stuff like that ya know those things you see online saying how to make eyes bigger could those things cause glaucoma because I really want bigger eyes?

[@Lizzifer7]

No exercises can make your eyes bigger.

[@glorygloryholeallelujah]

Soap with fabric softeners? Is that in most soaps?? How would that even be labeled??

[@marcminor7049]

That's exactly how I wash mine.

[@iAMNinjaDarkovia]

Does this works for microfiber cloths that is used for wiping tv screen too?

Don't most hand soap have moisturizer and isn't that bad for the cloths?

Can I just use Dawn dish soap like I use on my glasses?

[@DoctorEyeHealth]

Yes of course!

[@sumidot6323]

Can you still throw it in the dryer?

[@Ornelas11B]

I’ve always used hot water and dish soap. Why use cold water?

[@DoctorEyeHealth]

Good question! Too much heat can damage the cloth because it is made of polyester.

[@DoctorEyeHealth]

More of a problem for high heat

[@pusheencat7722]

what happens if you used fabric softener? I used on mine :( They look fine, but can they now damage the glassses?

[@DiGi1992]

I'm not 100% but someone else said the fabric softness can clog the pores of the cloth and cause smudges.

[@pusheencat7722]

@@DiGi1992 ah thank you! that does make sense. My fabric does sometimes smudge. Maybe I'll buy new.

@@didamnesia3575 I'm familiar with the ones auto detailers use in cleaning vehicles . Said they orginated in Japan years ago . Korean made is affordable and the Rag Co. in Boise , Idaho is a major seller . As well to washe them in warm / cold water only , no bleach , clear dtergent and no clothes softener . And if using a dryer , low heat / no heat , no dryer sheets . I use a 12 inch by 12 inch microfiber towel to dry my glasses . I use softsoap clear liquid soap to wash my glasses . First rinse them off in warm / hot water . Then use the soap in my hands to clean and then rinse off and dry . Best I think is a liquid soap , clear / scent free and even " natural " .
