Mask making your glasses fog up in winter cold? These tips can help you see clearly

Mike Stunson, McClatchy Washington Bureau 5 hrs ago

As the weather gets colder and mask wearing continues, those who wear glasses may face an unwelcome challenge. Here’s what to do to prevent your glasses from fogging up this winter.

Anti-fog spray

Soap and water

Adjust or change your mask

Adjust your glasses

Stay away from these solutions

So stay away from shaving cream, vinegar, shampoo and toothpaste, optometrist Dr. Brad Brocwell told Good Housekeeping, because they “can be harsh and abrasive to your lenses which can lead to scratches.”

Also, don’t use your own spit. Not only is it unsanitary, but saliva does not provide any chemicals to help fix the issue, Healthline said.
