Test the solvent on a small, inconspicuous area first to ensure it doesn’t damage the surface.

Always rinse the area thoroughly with water afterward to remove any residue.

So I tried 70% rubbing alcohol and some lens paper and with a little rubbing the paint specks came off. I quickly rinsed the lenses with water to remove the alcohol residue. The optometrist's office said it is not a good idea to let any substance besides water soak into the lenses as it may make them more brittle.
