Mine have built a decent number of very small scratches and they’re getting annoying so I’d like to get rid if at all possible.
I’ve seen various things suggested including:
- lens scratch repair kit (reviews don’t look great on amazon)
- baking soda paste
- non-abrasive toothpaste
- furniture polish (temporarily fills in the scratch from what I can tell)
I’m reluctant to try any of them without some first hand accounts. No lens coating on these so no worries there.
Thank you in advance!
edit: I just want to say thanks very much to everyone. I ended up getting my prescription emailed to me and buying a new pair for €17 (about $19 USD) delivered on a site that one helpful poster linked. Looks like they will take about 3 weeks to get here so I’ll put up with the scratchy ones until they get here.
When they do arrive I will take some pictures and test the various methods I found online then post up what works and what wrecks the lenses.
I recently viewed and saved a post regarding modern day lens coatings. Took me a bit to find it…

There’s also a particular comment in that thread that says what chemical they use to remove that coating. Check back soon and I’ll reply to this comment with a link to that particular comment…
Addendum, found the comment of interest…
