Some commercial products claim to fix scratches.
Reality:
- They may fill micro-scratches temporarily
- They do NOT restore original lens surface
- Results are usually short-term
Be cautious with marketing promises.
đĄ How to Prevent Scratches in the First Place
Prevention is far more effective than repair.
đ Good habits:
â Always use a hard case
â Clean with microfiber only
â Avoid placing lenses face-down
â Donât use clothing to wipe lenses
â Keep away from sand, dust, and keys
đ§ Why Scratches Happen So Easily
Even high-quality lenses can scratch because:
- Dust particles act like sandpaper
- Coatings are delicate
- Improper cleaning tools cause micro-damage over time
