Glasses + Masks = Fog…Or Does It?

As 2020 continues on most of us are well versed in the wearing and maintenance of masks,  but who would’ve thought the combination of glasses and masks could have so many things to consider.

Well, at Ulla Eyewear we’ve complied a list of ways to combat the fog; options that range from modifications to your current glasses and trends for your next pair.  We hope that you find this informative as we all navigate this new normal.

 

PLACING YOUR GLASSES OVER YOUR MASK

In our experience fogging seems to occur when there is space between the bottom edge of your glasses and your face/mask.  Sliding your mask up higher on your nose so the bottom edge of your glasses rests over the mask will help prevent fog of forming.

Apply a small amount of glycerin-based soap to the backside of your lenses.  Using a microfiber cleaning cloth wipe the lenses until they are clear again.  This small amount of soap has now created a barrier on the backside of the lenses.
