Often, binoculars are described as weatherproof or water-resistant, rather than waterproof. Such models are typically sealed to withstand splashing water or moderate rain (JIS grade 4), heavy rain (JIS grade 5), or waves (JIS grade 6), but they may eventually leak if the bad weather is prolonged or extreme.
How do you clean waterproof binoculars?
If the binoculars are waterproof, gently run a light stream of water over the lenses to remove excess grime. Do not store binoculars until fully dry. Avoid using window or glass cleaner on the binoculars because these products often include chemicals that can damage the integrity of the lenses
