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
