Lens Cleaning Procedure

Cleaning procedure for HD(1.5-3:1) lens.

To minimize the possibility of damaging the optical coating or scratch-

ing exposed lens surface, we have developed recommendations for

cleaning the lens. FIRST, we recommend you try to remove any

material from the lens by blowing it off with clean, dry deionized air.

DO NOT use any liquid to clean the lenses.

A Toraysee

TM

cloth is included with the lens kit.

Proceed as follows :

1. Always wipe lenses with a CLEAN Toraysee

TM

cloth.

2. Always wipe lenses in a single direction. Do not wipe back and

forwards across the lens surface as this tends to grind dirt into the

coating.

3. Do not leave cleaning cloth in either an open room or lab coat pocket,

as doing so can contaminate the cloth.

4. If smears occur when cleaning lenses, replace the cloth. Smears

are the first indication of a dirty cloth.

5. Do not use fabric softener when washing the cleaning cloth or

softener sheets when drying the cloth.

6. Do not use liquid cleaners on the cloth as doing so will contaminate

the cloth.

Order number for a new Toraysee

TM

cloth : R379058.

Other lenses can also be cleaned safely with this Toraysee

TM

cloth.

Cleaning procedure for the other HD lens

To minimize the possibility of damaging the optical coating or scratch-

ing exposed lens surfaces, we have developed recommendations

for cleaning lenses. FIRST, we recommend you try to remove any

material from the lens by blowing it off with deionized air or lightly

brushing it with a soft, camel's hair brush.

Plastic lens with multilayer coatings & all glass lens elements.

1. DO NOT spray any type of fluid directly on the lens surface.

2. DO NOT use any dry material to clean the surface (dry rag, tissue,

etc.)

3. Use a commercial liquid window cleaner. DO NOT use an

aerosol. Other cleaning agents, such as laboratory-grade ac-

etone or a 70-30 mixture of ethyl ether and ethyl alcohol may also

be used. If you are not sure of the cleaning agent, experiment with

a small area of the lens first.

4. Use a soft cotton cloth (cotton diapers laundered several times to

remove sizing) or any soft facial tissue (Charmin, Softweve, etc.).

5. When using window cleaner, moisten the cloth or tissue and

lightly wipe the surface. Then lightly dry with a new tissue.

6. When using acetone or ethyl ether mixture, proceed as follows :

Fold the cloth or tissue several times to form a pad. Soak the folded

end of the pad in the acetone. Starting at the diameter opposite you,

immediately wipe the coated lens, with very little pressure, toward

you in a straight line and off the lens. Do not stop with the tissue

on the lens. Wipe at a speed that is equal to the evaporation rate.

This is very important to prevent streaking and spotting. Start your

wiping at one side of the lens and, with successive wipes, move

to the other side. Turn the pad over for each wipe, then inside out.

Do not make more than one wipe per clean area of pad. Be careful

of the painted edge, since acetone will soften it.
