It's probably too simple for the Scientific Session, but would be perfect for
the new Pearls, Tips, & Tactics course.

I’ve had great luck with these lens cleaning pens:

One of the Zeiss service people recommended it when he was here cleaning the
camera. I don’t know how they work, but like the saying on the Bon Ami can
says: ‘hasn’t scratched yet.”

Noelle,
We recommend first using a blower to remove any dust/particles that may damage
the objective lens.
You can then use a lens cloth and denatured alcohol. Do NOT use isopropyl
alcohol or other harsh cleaning chemicals, which can remove the coating on the
outer surface of the objective lense.
Sincerely,
Hugo Hur

Hello OPTIMAL,
I am wondering if anyone has a set protocol for cleaning fundus cameras.
Specifically, how often do you clean the front objective lens, and what methods
do you use? We recently discovered that one of our camera lenses was badly
scratched from someone cleaning with something abrasive (seriously looks like
it was done with sandpaper..thankfully it does not affect the image at all in
most cases)
Any other tips on camera cleaning and maintenance would be welcome!
Thanks very much!
