I'e used a couple differet things. The basic idea is that they're a
wax or surfactant that causes water to bead up, and having formed
beads, roll off the glasses. the things I've tried ("spit" brand
stuff (two different products) and 'cat crap' and something else) all
work okay, but not for a long time. They do better on the inside of
your lenses, where they don't get washed off in the rain.
The other thing you can do is get glass (actual, you know, glass)
lenses. They're easier to kep clean, and clean lenses the water comes
off aster. There are other issues with tht, of course.
