Care
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the pristine appearance of your Ray-Ban RX5228 frames:
- Cleaning: Gently clean your frames and future lenses daily. Use a soft, clean microfiber cloth to wipe away dust and smudges. For deeper cleaning, apply a small amount of mild soap (like dish soap) diluted in lukewarm water. Gently rub the frames and lenses, then rinse thoroughly with cool water and dry with a clean microfiber cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals, paper towels, or abrasive materials.
- Storage: When not wearing your glasses, store them in a protective hard case. This prevents scratches to the frames and lenses, and protects them from accidental damage.
- Handling: Always use both hands to put on and take off your glasses to avoid stretching or distorting the frame. Avoid placing your glasses face down on any surface.
- Temperature: Protect your frames from extreme heat (e.g., leaving them on a car dashboard) as this can warp the material.
