But with all the money the government saved on that $450 hammer they figured they could splurge on the pen!

Clarity No Fog works until it get's wet so as long as you're not in deep powder, it's great.It's a rag soaked in some kinda' nanotech stuff.One rag's good for a dozen uses. I rub it on my glasses and the inside of the visor. Bought it originally for the motorcycle rides which works better in that application. All the snow flyin' around when you're on sleds makes it more work to keep it effective. The HJC Symax Modular came with the mask but it wouldn't seal well enough around my nose to keep the glasses from fogging up. The No fog helped but the mask was too uncomfortable. It'd get all sweaty then freeze. Hard to clip back on with gloves on. Ended up not using it. Wasn't bad till it got below 0 deg F

We just finished a 3 week real cold spell (daytime highs of -20F, lows in the -30s). After the first ride in that weather, I got a sample pack of 1 day disposble contacts and rode that night. What a treat. I ended up buying a box that will get me through the winter, with some left over for the beach this summer, and all those other activities where glasses are a pain.
It's beautiful - you pop in a pair and throw them out when you are done. About 70 cents a lense.

I have tried all kinds of advertised products, with no great success. I know what you're saying, wearing glasses is a drag. After mega research, I have figgered it out.The reason that anti fogs wont work is because of the anti glare bonded to the lenses. I got a set of cheap lenses without anti glare, in my prescription, put them in a spare set of frames, bango the anti fog works awesome.

Well, I used the No-Fog mask for the trip up to the French and it worked great. Didn't feel all couped up like I thought and breathing was much easier than the mask that came with the HJC Symax(that got all sweaty then froze). Gonna use the No-Fog on the bike too for those cold morning rides to work.. Covers up the neck so I don't have to wear a turtle neck and stuff of that sort.

Baby oil on the lens works plus if it gets in your eyes it won't hurt.
Even a baby shampoo works okay but is bothersomer in the eyes.
Trying to convince the wife to get LASIK.
BUT after reading about LASIK it makes me nervous to know the first and only cut by the surgeon is the most critical plus most end up with less night vision and halo light effects.

Try Rain-X. It works great on my windshield of my car. The water just rolls right off of the window. You can be driving 70 mph in a heavy rain and not have to use your wiper blades. I don't think this will help in your case much. ;-)

Rain - X is good but expensive.
Car wax on the outside works just as well.

I agree with mmrosshere. The full face moto-cross style helmet with goggles on a Quik-Strap has been the best for my son who wears glasses. I wear this as well and never have a problem. My wife doesn't wear glasses but she was wearing a helmet with a flip up visor and she had frost on her visor in 10 minutes. She has also switched to the moto helmet and goggles and will never go back to the visor.
As for the anti-fogs, I had good luck with Joy liquid dish detergent on my hockey helmet visor. And I smelled Lemony Fresh
