I used nail polish remover and it came right off the eye glasses. Any ordinary nail polish remover will work.
Editor's Note: This tip is only for glass lenses without any protective coating. Nail polish remover will damage plastic lenses.

If they are plastic and you can't used acetone all I think of is to leave them in water overnight to see if it will soften the glue enough to get it off without scratching.
I thought about acetone also. That's the only thing I know that works. I would try very little on a cotton swab. Good Luck.
I was repairing my eyeglasses' frame with superglue and the dog bumped me which caused a small smudge on the lenses. Is there something that I can remove this with which won't cause scratches?

Do not use fingernail polish remover. It will ruin the frames. I already did that.

The only thing I can recommend is to soak the lens in nail polish remover for a couple hours to see if it softens the glue and then try to wipe it off.
ALERT! Nail polish remover acetone might destroy the lens if it is plastic-based, and the frame as well? My optician told me NEVER to use krazy glue when doing repairs, I guess this could be why.
Buy the strongest nail polish because it works! Must keep the cotton doubled tip swabs super wet at all times when rubbing the stained areas! I rubbed for 30 seconds in stained area and cleaned wet area with toilet paper "Continue same process again and again" Important!
One more thing "Keep the cotton swabs purely wet at all times and use 1 time with every different swab. Never use same swab again. I'm happy now! I thank Suntydt with the eye patch! God bless you Suntydt!
