How should you clean a resident's glasses?

Cleaning glasses with warm water and a small amount of mild soap is the best method because it effectively removes oils and dirt without risking damage to lenses or coatings. Warm water helps dissolve oily films, and a tiny amount of soap provides lubrication to lift grime without leaving harsh residues. Rinsing away the soap prevents streaks that can blur vision. Dry the lenses with a soft, lint-free cloth to avoid scratches. Avoid hot water, which can warp frames or damage coatings; alcohol can strip coatings and irritate skin; and wiping with a dry cloth alone often leaves oils and smudges behind.
