i just bought a lens pen recently from cathay photo.

and also how do i know that i need to change one.

sorry for my ignorance, but what does a lens pen do?

my best guess is that it cleans the lens?

yes... for protection. So that if got debris hit the lens, it will hit the filter instead. If got finger hand smudges, also smudge the filter first
