how do you get super glue off of plastic sunglass lenses? Is there a solvent or somehting I can use? Thanks.?

Put some rubbing alcohol on it, let it sit for couple of minutes then wipe it off.\n\nor nail polish remover.\n\n\nNo, it wont desolve the lens...

cotton swap with rubbing alcohol or  fingernail polish or there's this stuff that get's glue off of things i thinks it's called GLOO BE GONE or something like that. you can find it at WAL-MART i think in automotives or crafts, or maybe school supplies.

I use Goo Gone and then just take a scraper and scrape it off.  Add some rubbing alcohol if that fails.

Use fingernail polish remover. That's the standard method.\n\nHowever, test in a corner of your lens first. If your lenses are made of some variety of plastic, the fingernail polish remover might affect the plastic too.

contact eye drops or sailine solution

If you were like most children and had the white glue or used a glue stick (more than 5 yrs old) than you are out of luck. The glue will not come off without damaging the card. If you used super glue, it will eventually break down on paper, however the damage will have already been done and the cards will be discolored where the glue was applied. \n\nTrust me you aren't going to be able to get anywhere close to anything for them, best to just leave them in the book and chalk that one up to experience.

Some liquid to contact  on your lens. It's saline. Go for laser correction.

You have to have a decently dry finger, so that the lens doesnt stick to the finger.\n\nPut it on the end of your index finger, and put 1-2 drops of saline into the lens, this will allow it to have a "suction cup effect" to your eye.  Using your middle finger (on the same hand as the contact lens) and your other hand, hold your eye open and allow the lens to catch to your eye.  Blink a couple times to press out air bubbles, and to allow the contact lens to move into place.\n\nTo take out the contact lens, hold your eye open as you did putting it IN, and with your thumb and index finger, GENTLY pinch off the lens, it should pull off with just a little bit of force.  Hope this helps!!!  :)

i do, and i actually went to the eye doctor today.  he said it isnt good because the solution has preservatives in it that arent made to be in your eye at all times.  like if you put your contact in and it has some solution, your eye washes that away after a few minutes.  the answer is no

Curious, why try cleaning the lens? Were you having difficulties reading discs?\n\nI'd suggest getting a new CD drive. DVD/CD burners are inexpensive. See source link.

Dichloromethane will dissolve most plastics except for PTFE, PFA, or FEP. if you could find a transparent plastic coated with any of these, it might work.

I think you mean that it's formed a vacuum with the plastic, in which case some of the suggestions below won't work.  You need to warm it up, then the air/solution between the lens and the case will expand, lifting it away from the case.\n\nTo do this, you could either add warm water to the case, or close the case completely and put the whole thing into very hot water.

Nothing at all should happen as long as you took the contacts out fairly quickly and washed them.\n\nIf not, and they aren't one day disposables, you may have to get them checked by an optician as the chemicals in the medication may affect the lens

I had that happen to me once too, because I used them on top of my contact lenses, I never found out why it happened though....sorry

Why would you want to 'paint' them??  IF you are looking for colored or novelty lenses... you can buy them online.  http://www.noveltycontactlenses.com/\nhttp://www.fxeyes.com/  and I am sure plenty of other places.

Use lint free cloths and any Xylene based cleaner (I do not the brands available in your country). You may also use the cleaner liquid available to clean contact lenses. Make sure the glass is completely dried up after cleaning. The mirror mostly located below the lamp. If you see dust on it you may clean it with same cloth and solution. This mirror is front coated one and very much prone to scratches.\n\nFor scanner error it might be some other problem, like driver, twain driver, connecting cable related.

Polycarbonates\nHow to tint them\n\nPolycarbonate lenses have always presented a challenge for those who wish to tint them. With lenses made from CR-39� monomer plastic and BPI� Molecular Catalytic™ tints the tinting process is much more straight forward. These tints use a carbon molecular that shares an electron with the carbon molecule in the plastic, so that the tint bonds to, and becomes part of the lens structure itself. The end result is that the lens cures in the tinting process and has a more scratch-resistant surface. Polycarbonate, unfortunately, is very resistant to tints. To tint polycarbonate lenses one must tint the scratch coating and the better the scratch coating the harder it is to tint. The first type of coatings that were applied to polycarbonate were so resistant to tints that obtaining a sunglass shade was almost, if not, impossible.\nIn recent years, the types of coatings that are used on polycarbonate lenses have changed considerably. It is much more common today to see a combination of coatings used on polycarbonate. Typically, the front surface, which tends to receive the most scratches, has been very effectively coated by the factory. The back surface is now commonly coated by the optical lab. The coating on the back surface is definitely tintable, even to relatively dark sunglass shades.\nThere are some fundamental principles for tinting polycarbonate that will help you considerably. (Many of these ideas apply equally well to tinting plastic lenses).\n\nBefore tinting:\nEnsure that both lenses are from the same source, preferably the same batch number. Polycarbonate and lenses made from CR-39� monomer both vary significantly from different manufacturers and from manufacturer’s batches.\nClean the lenses with BPI� Lens Prep II™. This conditions the surface of the lens and reduces the surface tension of the scratch coating.\nCheck your lens tinting instrument thoroughly. Make sure that it is reaching and maintaining a steady temperature. Check the heat transfer fluid. If it looks old, replace it. Always use a quality product like BPI� heat transfer fluid. Use of other substances is not recommended and can be hazardous to your health. Ensure that the tint tank is immersed sufficiently into the heat transfer fluid in accordance with the manual of your lens tinting instrument. Mix the tints with distilled water. This will eliminate the possibility of any mineral contamination that may exist in your local water supply.\nMix and stir the tints well. Also, continue to stir the tints at regular intervals. If you notice patches of unevenness (blotches) in the tinted lenses, it is time to change the tint.\nCheck the temperature of your tint bath with a quality laboratory thermometer to ensure that the operating temperature of the tints is between 205�F and 210�F. Polycarbonate (or lenses made from CR-39� monomer) will not tint properly at even slightly cooler temperatures. Finally, the coatings of polycarbonate lenses will absorb moisture from the air. This can create difficulty for the coatings to absorb tints. Reduce the exposure of the lenses to high levels of humidity (For instance, around a steaming tint bath) prior to tinting.\n\nDuring tinting:\nDetermine for yourself a standard for the particular tint that you are using. Use a sample lens with a freshly mixed batch of tint. Ensure that all the conditions above have been fulfilled. Tint the lens for 15 minutes. Rinse dry and set aside. Test future lenses that you tint with that color against the standard after 15 minutes. When the tint cease to match the standard, change the tint.\nA common mistake is trying to get more lenses from each batch of tint than is practical. It is much less expensive and time consuming to change the regularly than it is to keep pushing the numbers of lenses out of every batch.\nLimit the amount of time that the lens spends in the tint or neutralizer. You should not exceed a half hour. If you are typicall
