Eyeglass hinges use specialized silicone-based lubricants that are clear, non-staining, and don't attract dust or dirt. Regular oils would migrate onto lenses and face, creating smudges and skin irritation. These tiny hinges can open and close thousands of times per year, making proper lubrication essential for smooth operation. Opticians often apply microscopic amounts during adjustments to prevent squeaking and ensure comfortable wear.
