Cleaning Rimless Glasses with Microfiber Cloth

Now I'm going to talk to you about cleaning your lens if you own a drill mount or a rimless pair of glasses. Again you're using the microfiber cloth, but in this instance you have to be a little bit more careful because you don't want to put any extra pressure on the point at which the lens is screwed in. So what I like to do is pretty much hold the cloth over, put a little bit of pressure on that fulcrum so that you're not pulling on it, you're actually pushing on the fulcrum so that it's not coming loose when you move around the lens. From there, I just kind of move across the lens. Again, you don't want to put pressure on any of these two points here or here, so hold onto one of them as you clean near the edges. The other thing is getting around the point at which it's drilled. That can actually be kind of problematic. There's actually points as to where they...these are push pin inserts right here, so you have to clean around them. Generally speaking, I would take my fingernail, of course with the cloth, and kind of run under it and over it to get any of that grime or dust, or whatever it may be, a smudge, from off of there. But again, make sure you hold it at a point where you're not putting so much stress on the frame itself or where the frame is attached to the lens. That's key when discussing how to take care of your drill mount frames, because the last thing you want to do is snap them off when you're just cleaning them.
