Sunglasses Case Protection Tips: What to Carry

Quick answer

A sunglasses case keeps your eyewear safe from scratches, dust, and pressure. Pack it with a microfiber cloth and a small pouch for extras to stay organized.

How to pack your sunglasses case

1. Clean lenses before storage: Wipe lenses with a microfiber cloth to remove oils and dust. Never use paper towels or clothing, which can leave scratches. Skipping this step can trap grit against the lens surface.
2. Place sunglasses with lenses facing up: Set the glasses in the case with the lenses facing upward (away from the hinge side). This prevents hinge pressure from scratching the lens interior. Lenses-down storage is a common mistake that leads to micro-scratches over time.
3. Add a microfiber cloth for double duty: Fold a clean microfiber cloth over the lenses before closing the case. It cushions the glasses and gives you a cleaning cloth ready when needed. A cloth also absorbs minor moisture if you go from air conditioning to a hot car.
4. Include a small pouch for extras: Use a zip pouch or coin purse to store lens wipes, a spare nose pad, or a tiny screwdriver. Keep these separate from the glasses to avoid pressure points. Loose items inside the case can press into the frame or lenses.
5. Close the case fully and store upright: Snap or zip the case shut completely. Store it upright in a bag or drawer so the weight of other items does not press on the case lid. A partially closed case can pop open and let sunglasses fall out.
