Treat your Blade as you would any quality eyewear. It is mostly

Use only the included microfiber pouch or equivalent microfiber cloth.
CAUTION: Do not spray with cleaners. If required, use a microfiber
cloth moistened with standard eyeglass cleaner. Avoid drips or spills.
Solvents, household cleaners and paper towels should never be used
on your Blade.
CAUTION: Do not pack loose objects in the zipper case with the Blade.
Loose objects may rattle and cause damage.
CAUTION: Vuzix Blade is not water resistant. Avoid submerging and
exposure to moisture. Excessive moisture will damage the Blade.
