How do you clean your glasses and the microfiber cloth used to clean your glasses? (lemmy.ml)

I have been cleaning my glasses using bathroom tissue as I had thought it was softer than microfiber cloth, but apparently that's not true.

I don't want to use microfiber cloth as it can easily accommodate in silica or any other dust particles if not cleaned properly which will scratch my glass. I don't know what to do in this case. So, how do you clean your glasses?

I honestly haven't ever noticed a difference and I've worm glasses my entire life.

I get the best lenses with all the options as far as tinting and coatings and lense material and even front and rear shaping, polished lens edges which suck by the way super rainbow streak effect under heavy lighting. I cannot find any manufacturer that can provide a better set of lenses.

That being said so you know I'm serious about my care. I use ISO everyday or every other day. I keep my lenses crystal clear. Frames clean. They show no signs of wear on the anti glare. I'd be more concerned with fitment on your face always keeping your eyes in the right pupil focal point more than worrying about lens coatings.

Secondly I'd be most concerned with keeping your script updated at bare minimum every 2 years prefer yearly or 18 months. Your eyes change a lot more rapid than you think don't let the optical nerves get tired. Focus on what lenses material makes the most difference for your eyesight and also keeping the lenses curve low as possible depending on your script.
