Do you wear glasses? If so, do you find you are always cleaning them? I seem to be always cleaning my glasses because I just can't stand them when they have even a bit of smudge on them or dust. Mine seem to always have dust on them. I wish there were a pair of glasses you could buy that are dust resistant. I have heard you can buy a spray that helps with the dust, but I have never been able to find any. Can anyone here tell me the name of a brand of glass cleaner that repels dust?
I have those glass cleaner cloths that you get when you buy a new pair of glasses. I have about 5 of them and always carry one in my pocket. I have one by the computer too, since it seems that they get the dustiest when I am on the computer.

Hi chriselotz, I am shortsighted, of course I have to put on my glasses all the time. You are right I find my glasses easily to get dirty by dust and other tiny sticky dirty things. I always wonder how the disgusting stuff comes from as I wipe them with the glass cleaner cloth very often. So I always bring along with me a piece of cleaner cloth. I have two pairs of glasses. One pair is for doing computer work and it could protect my eyes from being spoiled by the glaring light of the computer screen. There is another cleaner cloth in front of my desktop so I can wipe my glasses at anytime.

i wear glasses, but i rarely clean them - maybe i just get used to dust or fingerprints or maybe they just don't get that dirty? you can usually find the glass cleaner spray at places like pearl vision or sears or other optical stores - i'm sure it can be found online as well...I've used it and it seemed okay...but i find just plain water & the inside of my shirt do well too, lol.

I only wear mine once in awhile, mostly wear contacts, but when I do wear them they do seem to need a wipe many times a day. I've never heard of any special spray. I do have the cloths and then regular eye glass cleaner. My problem isn't so much with dust as it is with stuff like I touch them and leave a smudge, or it rains, or whatever.

After all this time, I'm finally using the glass cleaner cloths consistently. I've had so many pairs of scratched glasses in the past. I should buy more like you have because the glasses are always smudged or dusty it seems too. If you find out about this spray, please post the info. whit

I don't wear glasses. I know for sure that I need them, but I keep putting off going to get my eyes checked. Maybe when I get my tax refund I will go and get it done. I have however bought cleaner for my sunglasses at the vision store. I don't remember the brand but I can tell you that it didn't work any better than just the wipe alone. When I'm fishing I get salt water spray on my glasses and I just dip them in the water and wipe them with whatever I have handy and it works just fine.

My husband cleans his glasses all the time too.I think he might wear out the lenses he cleans them so often.I use one of his glass cleaning cloths to wipe off DVD's when they are dirty.
