I am receiving conflicting information regarding the best way to clean

Presumably the cotton? lens cleaner supplied by the optician is ok - but if
this is not available will a soft paper tissue or linen handkerchief damage
the coating?

When mine are really dirty I run them under a cold tap with a bit of soap on
my fingers. Then dry on a clean handkerchief or even a face towel. Ordinary
tissue can scratch. However if you have had anti-glare, you probably had
anti-scratch too.
Try NOT to use sandpaper or steel wool.
But most of all don't put them down on their lenses.


And it wears off too after a few years.
I helped it along using a cheap tissue when I forgot my lens cleaning
cloth. I've not left the house without one since though.
