for every time you take your mask up or down. Or you could try another OR trick - wipe a TINY amount of liquid soap on your lenses and do NOT wash it off, polish it in. While on the subject PLEASE do not forget to wash your glasses every time you wash your hands.

Clear bandaids would look a little better. cry baby Nov 2020 #7

I don't get it. My N95 is fit tested and it fogs my glasses. mucifer Nov 2020 #8

Makes sense. I think N95s are meant to protect you when you inhale, not filter what you exhale. Towlie Nov 2020 #24

N95s without valves filter exhaled breath as well as inspired air. You are Maru Kitteh Nov 2020 #29

Vapor still has to be able to escape your N95. Some are better than others Maru Kitteh Nov 2020 #27

Welders use something to keep their visors from fogging up. rickford66 Nov 2020 #18

It 's worth a try. The fogging makes me crazy (not a hard thing to do at the best of times). Shrike47 Nov 2020 #19

Anti fog sprays help. Treat your glasses daily with a good one. nolabear Nov 2020 #26

I find that crimping down that wire in the mask above the nose works sometimes, but not always. Dark n Stormy Knight Nov 2020 #28

Excellent tip! Thanks! But why do you wear your mask while driving? nt LAS14 Nov 2020 #30

All the solutions that involve anti-fogging sprays, etc., ignore that fact that fogging... LAS14 Nov 2020 #31
