Your glasses
Whether we are talking about sunglasses or eyeglasses, they should be disinfected as often as possible if you want to avoid any health problems. Thus, not only can you contract COVID-19, but also other eye diseases, such as conjunctivitis, which can be transmitted very easily when you touch certain contaminated surfaces and then your eyes.
“When adjusting your glasses, you often inadvertently touch your face and may be tempted to rub your eyes without washing your hands first,” Sekhon says. “Droplets from a person’s sneeze or cough could land on your glasses.”
So, you have to clean your glasses throughout the day and disinfect your hands before touching them.
Your house keys
You touch your house keys every time you leave and return to your home, so they could also be a favorable environment for germs and viruses. All you have to do is to scrub them with a cloth and sanitizer or simply use a disinfecting wipe. You can also opt for sanitary alcohol and spray it on your house keys when you come back home.
“They’re commonly put in your pants or jacket pocket and are touched every time you leave and return to your home — and possibly several times in between, while out doing errands,” says Sekhon.
