I use it every night, wipe down the nose flaps and headband after use. I only clean the lenses once a month at most as even the microfiber cloth ended up putting scratches on the lenses. With careful use they don't really get dirty where it matters. The top of the lenses do get some smudges from my eyebrows, yet as long as that's out of the fov it's not worth it to risk smearing that around the lenses.

Don't worry too much about scratches though. I got a bad one on the left lens from early use, not sure how it happened. It's visible as a slight blur in 2D mode, yet in VR it's almost impossible to spot. Luckily the way the optics work I'm far more likely to see any specs of dirt on my glasses than on the headset. It looks a lot worse when you inspect it while not wearing it, but as long as it looks great while wearing it, don't mess with it.

Next headset I'm getting I'll be a lot more careful with cleaning from the start. I was cleaning it regularly when I just got it, like a camera lens, trying to get it to look shiny clean. However the glass in psvr is quite soft and easily scratched.

For storage, I have it sitting on a throw pillow on the couch next to where I use it, lenses pointing slightly down so no light falls into them or dust can settle in there.
