In this article, you will learn about the best ways to clean or ensure hygiene using the Varjo Aero headset and the controllers. There are 3 different methods recommended by VR Expert to clean or ensure a more hygienic experience with the Varjo Aero.
Method 1. Hygiene Masks
What is needed:
- Varjo Aero
- Hygiene Masks
- Varjo Aero controllers
Hygiene masks are disposable cotton masks that can be worn on the face before putting on the Varjo Aero. This creates a protective layer between the headset and the face. The masks are easy to use and are universally applicable with all types of VR headsets. The disadvantage is that an extra step is needed before putting on a VR headset.
Advantages

Method 2. Disinfectant Wipes
What is needed:
- Varjo Aero
- Disinfectant Wipes
- Varjo Aero controllers
Important! Alcohol wipes can not be used on the lenses of the Varjo Aero. The second method to clean the Varjo Aero is through the use of disinfectant wipes. Disinfectant wipes are disposable wipes that are used to wipe down the majority of the VR headset. Take care when cleaning the headset that you do not use abrasive wipes on the lenses of the headset, rather use a standard glasses cleaner to avoid irreparable damage. The benefits of the disinfectant wipes are that they provide a good solution for the majority of the Varjo Aero especially thanks to its PU leather face pad. They are also easy to use and can allow the headset to be cleaned quickly between uses. The disadvantages of disinfectant wipes is that they do not remove all the dirt and bacteria found on the headset. This is highly dependent on how thoroughly it is cleaned and the quality of the wipes. Another disadvantage is the possibility of damaging the headset lenses if a strong alcohol wipe is used on it.
Advantages
