Reflective sunglasses protect your eyes from harmful UV rays while complementing any fashionable outfit. Though most high fashion sunglasses are built to endure daily use, a trip to the beach or an accidental drop may leave a scratch or two on your lenses. The reflective layer of the lens is often beneath the surface, which means you can buff out a surface scratch without ruining the mirror-like effect. With a few household products, your pair looks new in no time.
Saturate a microfiber cloth with rubbing alcohol. Wipe the front and back of each lens with the cloth to clean any dirt or dust which may be filling the crack.
Dip a cotton ball in baby oil and apply a generous layer over the scratched area of each lens. Allow the oil to sit on the lenses undisturbed for 15 to 20 minutes.
Buff each lens with a lens tissue using a rapid circular motion. Continue until most of the oil has been absorbed into the tissue. Use new lens tissues as needed.
Apply a small amount of lens cleaning solution to a fresh lens tissue and wipe the front and back of each lens clean.
