Being a glasses wearer myself I have experienced this darkened, smeary

light point filled, focus free, terror trip home.



Is there any thing to be done about it other than get contacts?



Has anyone tried rainex or other on their glasses?

When I got back into cycling in the 90s, wearing glasses in the rain, or on cooler days, was a real pain. The more I tried to wipe the lenses clean, the worse they got. I started wearing cycling caps under the helmet, and the rain problem pretty much went away. I still get a short time fog problem at stop lights, in cooler weather, but once I get rolling again, the fog disappears. When I wore contacts, the glasses I wore for eye protection did the same thing.


I wear a cycling cap under my helmet but it's usually backwards. I've
tried turning it around when it rains but it only seems to help when I'm
not moving or there's no wind.
