Eyeglasses Anti-Fog Liquid Left Residue

RE: Eyeglasses Anti-Fog Liquid Left Residue Post By Alexusf (Guest Post) (05/25/2008) Hi, thanks for all the responses! I've tried vinegar and I also have used an ultrasonic eyeglass cleaner and eyeglass cleaner and ammonia. My lenses are plastic with no coatings on them. I used a product called "Kleer Fog" which says its for glass or plastic lenses. It works keeping the fog/steam away but makes it impossible to keep them clean. EVERYTHING streaks now and they are always smeary. I don't think I can get the warranty because I used the product myself. I'm definitely going to try rubbing alcohol- and the hand sanitizer which is also alcohol. I'll let everyone know!

I keep a travel size bottle (1.5 ounces) by my computer. I put one drop on each lense. Use my finger to spread it around, one drop will do both sides of a lense. Dry with a cloth or soft paper towel. It may work, maybe need to use more than one drop, spread it around and let it set awhile before wiping it off.

If they are glass, acetone (nail polish remover) would work well if your lenses have no special coating. Maybe the product ate the coatings you had.

Do your lenses have an anti-reflective coating? If so, does the non fog product specifically state that the product should not be used on AR coated lenses? If you are in the clear, you may have a viable complaint with the company who makes the anti-fog cleaner. 2. Are your lenses under warranty? This is usually a year, if so, they may be remade under warranty. 3. Are you sure the film you are refering to is actually a film and not perhaps a crazing or something inside the lens (this happens with polycarbonate lenses sometimes) another warranty issue. 4. I have had success in removing stubborn " stuff" with alcohol Try bringing them to an optician as we have stronger stuff and can determine if your problem is fixable. much luck. A thrifty optician!

Maybe you should ask your eye doctor ?
