Important tips to adjust the fit of your Magna Lens eyewear
There are a few tips that you’ll need to know the first time you wear Magna Lens eyewear, so please read this section on optimizing your fit:
Step 1: Start with earmuffs: Put your earmuffs on with the magnets facing forward.
Step 2: Adjust the frame arms: You will want to adjust your eyewear frames so that the nosepiece will sit at your desired location on the bridge of your nose. To do this, you will firmly grasp the end of the frame (the part that holds the ball magnet) and telescope it in or out as needed to either lengthen or shorten the frame arms.
Step 3: Test your fit: Test the fit after making adjustments, then adjust further if necessary. Once you find your correct fit, you don’t have to adjust the frame arms again.
Step 4: Fine-tune adjustments: This one is important: For fine-tune adjustments of the eyewear on your face, you should not try to move the frames as you would with traditional glasses. They won’t move as much as you might want as they are attached to your earmuffs. Instead, for small adjustments, simply grab onto your earmuffs and adjust them on your ears, which will in-turn adjust the glasses on your face. Don’t worry, your ears will not mind these small adjustments to the earmuffs and your eyes will be happy.
Step 5: Remove eyewear first, and end with removing your earmuffs: Don’t forget to remove your eyewear before you remove your earmuffs, as they are attached. If you do it the other way around, you may risk dropping your eyewear and scratching the lenses.

When installing the earmuff pads back onto your earmuffs, please be sure to have the magnets in the correct orientation. They should be on the same side and should be positioned such they they are higher up on the earmuff cup (closer to the headband), as in the video thumbnail.
Proper care for your Magna Lens eyewear
Wash and dry your hands thoroughly
Before cleaning your eyeglasses, make sure your hands are free from dirt, grime, lotion and anything else that could be transferred to your lenses. Use lotion-free soap or dishwashing liquid and a clean, lint-free towel to clean your hands.
Rinse your glasses under a gentle stream of lukewarm tap water
This will remove dust and other debris, which can help avoid scratching your lenses when you are cleaning them. Avoid hot water, which can damage some lens coatings.
Apply a small drop of lotion-free, citrus free dishwashing liquid to each lens
Most dishwashing liquids are very concentrated, so use only a tiny amount. Or apply a drop or two to your fingertip instead. Use only brands that do not include lotions or hand moisturizers.
Gently rub both sides of the lenses and all parts of the frame for a few seconds
Make sure you clean every part, including the nose pads and the ends of the temples that rest behind your ears. And be sure to clean the area where the edge of the lenses meet the frame, where dust, debris and skin oils can accumulate.
Rinse both sides of the lenses and the frame thoroughly
Failing to remove all traces of soap will cause the lenses to be smeared when you dry them.
Gently shake the glasses to eliminate most of the water from the lenses
Inspect the lenses carefully to make sure they are clean.
Carefully dry the lenses and frame with a clean, lint-free towel
Use a dish towel that has not been laundered with a fabric softener or dryer sheet (these sub-stances can smear the lenses). A cotton towel that you use to clean fine glassware is a good choice. Make sure the towel is perfectly clean. Dirt or debris trapped in the fibers of a towel can scratch your lenses; and cooking oil, skin oil or lotion in the towel will smear them.
Inspect the lenses again
If any streaks or smudges remain, remove them with a clean microfiber cloth. These lint-free cloths are available at most optical shops or photography stores.
Store properly
Store your eyewear in a proper pouch or case to protect the lenses from damage.
Safety Information: Important precautions and warnings
While your Magna Lens eyewear are designed and manufactured to provide a high level of protection, it is always possible to sustain a serious injury to your eyes or other body parts. You must take all appropriate precautions when operating in hazardous environments.
Neodymium magnets are not for children
Neodymium magnets are not toys. Children should not be allowed to handle neodymium magnets. Small magnets can pose a choking hazard. If multiple magnets are swallowed, they can attach to one another through intestine walls. This can cause a severe health risk, requiring immediate, emergency surgery if correctly diagnosed, and may lead to death.
Neodymium magnets can affect pacemakers and other medical devices
The strong magnetic fields near a neodymium magnet can affect pacemakers, ICDs and other implanted medical devices. Many of these devices are made with a feature that deactivates it with a magnetic field. Therefore, care must be taken to avoid inadvertently deactivating such devices.
Magnets can affect magnetic media
The strong magnetic fields near neodymium magnets can damage magnetic media such as floppy disks, credit cards, magnetic I.D. cards, cassette tapes, video tapes or other such devices. They can also damage televisions, VCRs, computer monitors and CRT displays. Avoid placing neodymium magnets near elec-tronic appliances.
