Moku Eyewear Maintenance Guide
Proper maintenance keeps your Moku eyewear in optimal condition, extends its service life, and preserves clear vision. Below are exclusive, easy-to-follow maintenance tips for lenses and frames to help you care for your eyewear better.
I. Lens Maintenance: Protect Clear Vision
1. Correct Cleaning Method
For daily cleaning, first rinse the lens surface with clean water to remove dust, sand, and other impurities, avoiding scratches on the coating during wiping. Then use the exclusive Moku microfiber cloth to gently wipe in one direction until dry. Never wipe with rough materials such as paper towels, napkins, or clothing hems—these contain abrasive fibers that can wear the lens coating and cause blurred vision.
For stubborn stains like oil or fingerprints, add a small amount of neutral detergent (e.g., phosphate-free hand soap) to clean water, gently rub the lenses, rinse thoroughly, and then dry with the cloth. Avoid using alcohol, gasoline, or strong acid/alkali cleaners, as they may corrode the coating and damage the lens material.
2. Additional Notes for Special Lenses
Functional lenses such as blue light-blocking, progressive, and anti-reflective lenses have more precise and fragile coatings. Avoid scratching the lens edges with your nails, and do not store them with sharp objects like keys or coins to prevent coating peeling and lens chipping. Minimize prolonged contact with cosmetics and skincare products while wearing to reduce chemical damage to the lenses.
II. Frame Maintenance: Preserve Shape and Texture
1. Material-Specific Care
Metal frames: Wipe sweat off the frame and nose pads with a dry cloth after wearing to avoid corrosion and plating peeling from long-term sweat accumulation. Regularly check for loose screws—do not over-tighten them forcefully. You can visit a Moku offline store for free professional tightening to prevent stripped screws and frame deformation.
TR90/acetate frames: Avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight or high-temperature environments (e.g., car dashboards, near heaters) to prevent material softening and deformation. Do not bend or squeeze the temples forcefully when not wearing. Store them with their natural curvature. For slight deformation, it is recommended to have them adjusted by professionals to ensure wearing comfort and alignment of the optical center with your pupils.
2. Daily Wearing Taboos
When putting on or taking off your eyewear, hold both temples with both hands to avoid uneven force, deformation, and misalignment caused by pulling one temple with one hand. Do not place the eyewear casually on the edge of a table to prevent falling and damage. For sports, it is recommended to use special sports eyewear to avoid damage from collisions and during intense activities.
III. Storage Tips: Avoid Damage Risks
When not wearing, always put your eyewear in the exclusive Moku hard case to avoid dust, scratches, and collisions. Place a desiccant pack in the case to absorb moisture, preventing frame dampness and lens fogging. Do not store the eyewear in pockets or bags without protection. For temporary placement, place it with the lenses facing up to reduce friction damage.
For long-term non-use, clean the eyewear thoroughly, put it in the case, and store it in a cool, dry place away from humidity, high temperatures, and strong magnetic fields to prevent frame fading, deformation, and lens yellowing due to aging.
