Mine have built a decent number of very small scratches and they’re getting annoying so I’d like to get rid if at all possible.
I’ve seen various things suggested including:
- lens scratch repair kit (reviews don’t look great on amazon)
- baking soda paste
- non-abrasive toothpaste
- furniture polish (temporarily fills in the scratch from what I can tell)
I’m reluctant to try any of them without some first hand accounts. No lens coating on these so no worries there.
Thank you in advance!
edit: I just want to say thanks very much to everyone. I ended up getting my prescription emailed to me and buying a new pair for €17 (about $19 USD) delivered on a site that one helpful poster linked. Looks like they will take about 3 weeks to get here so I’ll put up with the scratchy ones until they get here.
When they do arrive I will take some pictures and test the various methods I found online then post up what works and what wrecks the lenses.
Just wanted to come back and say thanks. I emailed my optician for my prescription and bought a pair of glasses off this site for €17 delivered (about $19 USD). Do you mind me asking how long yours took to arrive? I’m in one of the “standard delivery” countries.
If I remember right, it was just over 2 weeks; but it’s been a couple years since I ordered.
I’ve ordered my last 2 sets from there, and had at least 3 family members ordering from there too. We’ve never had any issues aside from one poorly fitting set, which they returned and got fresh ones free of charge. I really couldn’t be happier with goggles4u.
I’ve really got to get around to seeing the optometrist and getting a fresh prescription… Time flies.
You will not believe this but when I emailed for my prescription earlier I was told I’m well overdue (2021 was my last test) and I said “time flies”. She took the time to write “OUT OF DATE” twice on the scan.
Thanks for the timeline.
