Effective Glasses Fogging Techniques?

[muted reborn]

Hey, #1 thing is super near sighted and has to wear glasses.

Skiing in the pnw, he has lots of problems with fogging, either with glasses accommodating goggles or without goggles.

Haven't tried liquid soap treatment for the glasses yet. Any other wisdom out there to share?

Maybe it's just time to spring for the contacts?

How near sighted? -8? -9? I am legally blind and 'super' near sighted and contacts changed my life. No more living in a fishbowl - I couldn't kick a soccer ball off the ground with glasses because of the distortion effect. I couldn't coordinate my feet with my eyes, although sometimes I got lucky. And I played soccer for years as a kid.

Get contacts for a better quality of life, not because of fogging issues.

I have astignatism so contacts weren't workng well enough to see normal mechanical shit on the job, I missed easy stuff so I it affected my work, also i couldn't read street signs and then i scratched a cornea taking them out

SO as always your milage may vary

I can say that I wear prescription eyeglasses and sunglasses the majority of the year. Except when skiing requires goggles. Then I Throw the daily wear contacts in. This system isn’t for everyone but if you can handle the mostly glasses/sometimes contacts system, it works.

Hock a luggie in there, wipe it around then wipe off.

Crude but effective and no luggie required. Saliva is actually an excellent anti fog solution.

As for skiing, what's wrong with the regular popping the goggles up and down on your face to introduce fresh air when not skiing fast enough for the goggle vents to work properly?
