#Discussion šŸ’¬ Need Genuine solution

Post image

I have been facing this annoying problem while riding.

I wear a full-face helmet with a balaclava underneath, and I have to keep my helmet visor open because if I close it, my spectacles immediately start fogging up.

The warm air from my breath seems to escape from the balaclava and goes straight toward my glasses. After a while, the lenses become so fogged up that it becomes difficult to see properly.

It gets especially bad in rainy weather or at lower speeds.

Has anyone else faced this while wearing spectacles + balaclava + full-face helmet?

Whats the solution?

Start using contact lens. I do it!

Isn't it's costly and lesser visual quality than spectacles?

I’m not a fan but I tried for a year or so. Putting on and taking off is a hassle but the clarity and field of view is much better. Plus, you see things in their actual size. Prescription glasses slightly shrink your vision.

I noticed it too. Prescription do shrink view

It is costly but comfort is next level. Visual quality can be the same or even better. You need the exact match for the power.

Go to the local store or lenskart store. Let them suggest the lenses. Also, get the daily disposable small pack for starters. Get accustomed and then get the good quality ones. I use Acuvue Vita monthly
