How to Care for Your Glasses—The AZYR Way

There’s a quiet romance in owning a pair of glasses that have lived another life before you. Vintage frames carry decades of stories in their hinges, their curves, their weight in your hands. They’re not disposable objects—they’re heirlooms, art pieces, extensions of identity. And like anything crafted with intention, they deserve to be cared for with the same respect.

At AZYR, we believe caring for your frames is part of their story. These simple rituals preserve not just the shape and clarity of your glasses, but the artistry behind them.

1. Gentle Touch, Every Time

Use the soft cloth we provide—it’s made for the delicate acetate and lacquer that frame your face. Skip the sleeve—fabric can scratch lenses over time.

2. A Moment of Water & Soap

Every now and then, treat your frames to a spa moment: a gentle rinse with lukewarm water and a touch of neutral soap. No streaks, just crystal clarity.

3. Home in the Case

When your frames are not on your face, let them rest in their case. Even the finest acetate warps if left in sunlight or tossed into a bag with keys.

4. A Two-Handed Ritual

Putting on your glasses with both hands isn’t just etiquette—it maintains the balance and keeps the temples from shifting.

5. Professional Check-Up

Every few months, bring them in. A hinge tightened, a temple polished—these subtle touches keep vintage frames feeling newly crafted.

Closing Reflection
Glasses are more than functional tools. They are the final note in how you present yourself to the world. When you care for them, you’re not only protecting clarity of vision—you’re honoring the craftsmanship and history that make each AZYR frame unlike any other.
