Translation of Paperwork (German):
Treatment of Eyeglasses with Soap Stick
(Used when air rinsing of the eyeglasses fails or is unavailable and no clear lenses are available.)
Eyeglasses are lightly coated with dry soap stick and then polished with a dry cloth. The applied soap is spread evenly over the entire eyeglass surface using a dry cloth. With prolonged use under the mask, eyeglasses may fog up again. Eyeglasses should be treated again as needed.
