If you have a warranty on your glasses, stay away from anything they do not recommend--it will void the warranty and they will not replace if they can prove you did not clean them properly. Any tints or special coatings also may be harmed. Walmart has purse size bottles that have free refills, that is a great way to save money.
Miracle cloth. Wipe and away you go. Does not scratch.
I use a mix of water and white vinegar in a spray pump bottle and dry it with a napkin.
ONLY if the napkin is cloth, as paper napkins are, essentially, a wood product, an will scratch the lenses eventually.
Never use napkins. They are made out of paper... Wood! Scratch city! Use 100% cotton, I use an old t-shirt.
As long as you have glass lenses, a napkin or other paper is fine. For plastic, a soft cotton cloth or lens cloth is necessary to prevent scratching.
RUBBING ALCOHOL IN A SPRAY BOTTLE.
Don't use paper napkins. It'll scratch the lenses
