Removing scratches from sunglasses can be a delicate process, depending on the material of the lenses and the depth of the scratches. Here's a general guide to help you minimize or remove light scratches.
However, it's important to note that deep scratches might not be fully repairable at home, and attempting to remove them could potentially damage the lenses further. Always test any method on a small, inconspicuous area of the lenses first.

For Plastic Lens Care:
Using Toothpaste:
Just dab a little bit of toothpaste that's not gritty and doesn't have any gel in it onto the spot with the scratch.
Take a soft cloth or a cotton ball and lightly circle around the scratch with the toothpaste for 10-20 seconds.
Wash off the toothpaste with some cold water. If the scratch looks better but still there, you might want to do it again, up to three times.
Dry the lens off with a clean cloth that doesn’t leave any lint behind.
Baking Soda Mix:
Mix together a bit of water and baking soda until it makes a paste.
Put this paste on the scratch and softly rub it with a cotton ball or soft cloth in circles for about 20 seconds.
Rinse your lenses well with cold water and dry them with a cloth that won’t leave lint.
Car Wax or Furniture Shine:
Put a tiny bit of car wax or a silicone-based shine for furniture right on the scratch.
Using a soft cloth, rub it gently in circles over the scratch.
Keep going until it looks shiny and you can’t see the scratch as much.
Mustard and Vinegar Mix:
Mix up some dry mustard and white vinegar into a paste.
Carefully apply this to the scratch, then softly rub it in circles with a cloth for about 20 seconds.
Rinse the lens with cold water to get all the paste off and dry it with a lint-free cloth. This might help make the scratch less noticeable.
Polish for Metals:
Find a metal polish that’s okay to use on plastics and put a small amount on the scratch.
Gently rub it in circles with a cloth, working the polish into the scratch.
Let it sit for a bit, then buff the rest off with a clean part of the cloth until it looks shiny. This could help blend the scratch into the lens.
Cleaning Techniques for Glass Lenses:
Microfiber Cloth Cleaning:
The easiest and safest way to keep your glass lenses clean is by using a microfiber cloth made just for lenses. Gently wipe in circles. This gets rid of dust and smudges without scratching.
Soap and Water Wash:
Wash your lenses under lukewarm water. Put a small drop of gentle dish soap without lotion on the lenses.
Use your fingers to carefully rub the soap on both sides of the lenses. Rinse them well with water and dry with a microfiber cloth.
Cleaning Spray for Lenses:
Get a cleaning spray made for glasses. Spray it on both sides of each lens.
Then take a microfiber cloth and gently wipe the lenses in circles, making sure not to smear and to clean every part.
Vinegar for Tough Spots:
Make a mix of equal parts white vinegar and water. Dip a microfiber cloth into this mix, squeeze it out, and then clean the lenses with it.
Vinegar is great for getting rid of oily spots without harming the lens coatings. After, rinse the lenses with water and dry them with a microfiber cloth.
Wipes that are Already Wet:
These wipes come ready to use and are safe for glasses, without bad chemicals. Just use one to wipe your lens in circles.
They’re really good for quickly getting rid of fingerprints, oil, and smudges.
