Masks & steamed up glasses... help!

6 replies

InDireStraits · 09/11/2020 09:31

We now have to wear masks on school run & I’m really struggling with steamed up glasses in the colder weather. Anyone managed to sort this out? I’m having to walk without my glasses on as they immediately steam up so I can’t see anything. I’m pretty shortsighted so can’t see much without them on either. I’ve tried various types of masks & none of them are air tight enough around nose to avoid this happening.

It also happens in shops but tends to unfog quite quickly as my glasses warm up. It’s mostly a problem outside.

I am a glasses wearer and wear a mask all day at work.
Easiest thing I've found is to use a paperclip to hold the two loops tight together at the back of your hear.

The best thing I have found is to tie a knot in the elastic right where it leaves the make. It kind of puffs the mask up around your mouth. As long as you also have the nose wire to mould around your nose it makes a huge difference.

Also wearing your glasses slightly further down your nose helps.
