Put a very small drop of diswashing soap on each lens. Turn on the water and use a little water to rub the soap all over the lenses with your fingers. Turn off the water while rubbing the lenses to conserve water. Be sure to get both sides and the edges of the lenses.

After the lenses are washed well, rinse the glasses thoroughly in the sink. Make sure there is no dishwashing soap left on the lenses.

I use the same coffee filter for a few days. Just put it somewhere to dry out in between uses. For less than five dollars a year, you can keep your glasses clean and lint free.

Fabulous! I'm always putting my big grubby fingers all over the lenses of my glasses... they'd stay cleaner in the hands of your average baboon! Coffee filters would never have crossed my mind. Thanks, and 5*!
