11 GLASSES TRICKS EVERY FOUR EYE SHOULD KNOW

Although glasses have their benefits like seeing, they can also put a burden on your daily life.

People who wear glasses face annoyances and struggles that people with perfect sight just don't understand: a misty rain coating your freshly wiped spectacles, a greasy smudge in a dark movie theatre or showering blind.

Luckily, there are a few tips and tricks to help keep these daily irritations to a minimum, so you can go about your day streak/squint-free and get back to telling people that they can't try on your glasses.

• 1. Put a small strip of glow in the dark paint on your glasses case to easily find it in the dark.

• 4. Microfiber cloths are best for cleaning. Keep them everywhere, and wash them often.

  

  Buy the larger ones in bulk to save some money. You can always cut them in half for convenience.

• 5. They may not look cool, but these are cheap and will fit over your glasses. Perfect for the beach, a backup pair or if you can't afford prescription sunglasses.

• 11. You're spening too much money on your glasses.
