lens cleaning

Wiping glass surfaces

Lens cleaning is the process of removing dust, smudges, and other debris from optical surfaces—camera lenses, eyeglasses, telescopes, microscopes.

The task requires care because improper technique can scratch delicate coatings: Use a microfiber cloth for lens cleaning.

Lens cleaning kits typically include solution, cloths, and air blowers.
