Question

So does anyone know of a way to get rid of some pretty serious scratches in some sunglasses???

I've got a pair of those magetic sunglasses for my Rx glasses....But its like looking through glasses after cutting MDF..

Any thoughts or ideas?

Get replacement lenses for them if possible (if the clips have screws on the side you can replce them). If not you will need to replace the whole clip.


There is nothing that will get scratches out.

I tried the plastic polish already...nadda!

These are those flimsy little clipons that have the magnets on either end to attach to the little spots on the end of the glasses arms...

These glasses have takena beating and still keep going...

I may try the fine grit sand paper idea...could likely work...

Thanks guys!

Have you tried this on lenses before?
If so I would be very interested to see the results. I work in a vision/hearing clinic and we see this problem every day. Our optician has never found a solution in the 40yrs he has been doing this. Everything we have tried or heard about does not restore the lenses to a quality that is acceptable for vision. Everything either dulls the lenses or leaves a coating on that screws up the optics.
