Abstract: |
A digital wipe device is provided for lenses and similar articles which consists of a pair of sheaths in which the first sheath fits on a thumb of a hand and the second sheath fits on a finger of the hand. An interconnecting flexible member is connected to and extends between one side of each of the sheaths. A plurality of wiping sheets are connected in a stacked manner to an underside of the interconnecting flexible member and the sheaths, so that the outermost wiping sheet can be used to clean the lenses and similar articles between the thumb and finger and than torn away when soiled to expose a fresh clean wiping sheet for further use.
