Can you soak Oakley sunglasses in water?
I have some dust and dirt and wedged inbetween the lenses and the frame of my Oakley fives sunglasses. It's hard to get to, you can't really get to it with cloth or anything. Can I just soak them and water to clean the lenses and the area around it?

Soaking the glasses should not be a problem as long as you only use water (without any detergents). Another option would be to go to an optical store. They have ultra sonic cleaning machines and should also be able to deal with this.
Yes you can, but this is not going to solve your problem. You need to pop out the lenses and you can get a qtip or a microfiber cloth inside that little area.
The lenses pop out very easily. I interchange the lenses on my fives all the time.
Hold the frame and put your thumb on the inside of the lense, on the corner of the lens closest to the upper part of the nose bridge. Apply even pressure on this corner and it should pop out. Sounds like it’s going to break, but it’s not. When this corner pops out, you can remove the lens.

Yes, and you can probably use some mild liquid soap if you’d like too.
