How do you keep swimming goggles from fogging up very easily?

I recently got a pool, and gear like goggles, so of course I use them, but they fog up very easily. Does any one know an easy fix for this, or at least a way to keep my goggles from fogging up extremely fast? Plz help!

Thanx!!!

I have been diving for 30 yrs. and used all kinds of things. True, you can use spit but it really doesn't seem to be as effective as defog that is sold in dive shops and some sporting goods stores. Baby shampoo works well too. My favorite is liquid dish soap! I know, it doesn't sound like a good idea but hear me out.

Wet your goggles and place one drop for goggles. Masks may need more. Spread the liquid evenly. RINSE WELL (I give my mask a few shakes in the water) to avoid stinging later on. Do not use your fingers to rinse because you will remove the film. Your fingers have oils that will cause your goggles to fog too.

The reason I like dish soap because it is cheap and readily available. Most are biodegradable.

Why it works...after washing, dish soap leaves a 'sheeting film' that prevents dishes from leaving water spots on dishes. It is gone after it evaporates. When you wear a mask or in this case goggles it traps moisture inside so it doesn't evaporate.

You may have to reapply if you remove your goggles for too long or often. Remember to rinse it well. I have used this for hundreds of diving customers with no allergic reaction but if you do get irritation, discontinue.

Hope this helps!

Dos and Don'ts in Choosing Snowboarding Goggles

Are you a snowboarding enthusiast? Do you find pleasure in speeding down the slopes? Then you ought to know that a good pair of snowboarding goggles modifies your performance as well as your safety. As a snowboarder, wearing of goggles is very important. When snowboarders go for the slopes, their eyes are exposed to the sun's harmful rays, snow, and even tree branches that would hit their faces when they switch to another course. The goggles worn should not only look good. They should have properties that best protect your eyes.

Why should snowboarding goggles interest you? Snowboarding goggles are especially made for the lovers of the sport to protect their eyes from ultraviolet rays or UV rays from the sun. UV rays damage your eyes, causing photokeratitis or sunburn of the cornea, cataracts, and other eye defects. The glare from the sun that gets reflected from the snow also obscures your vision, and you could trip over an uneven terrain because of that. Snowboarding goggles also serve as barrier from snow, wind, ice, rocks, and even branches that hit your face when you veer off course.

What do you do to find the right pair of snowboarding goggles? Do not buy goggles that don't offer ultraviolet protection. The main purpose of goggles is to protect your eyes from the damaging UV. If the goggles defeat its purpose, then it is baseless to purchase them. It is best if the lenses of the goggles are polarized.

Choose goggles with wide peripheral view. Snowboarders travel at high speed and it is therefore important that they are able to quickly identify uneven terrain, rocks or trees, and other snowboarders that get in the way.

Be sure to wear a pair of snowboarding goggles with a comfortable fit. Try the goggles with a helmet before hitting the slopes.

Choose goggles that reduce fogging so that your vision stays clear. These goggles have double layer lens.

Choose goggles with interchangeable lenses. This way you won't have to buy several goggles to serve different weather conditions.

These are the things you should consider before buying goggles:

- If you use eyeglasses, be sure your goggles suits the glasses. Haber Vision's snowboarding goggles have this attributes .

- Ski or snowboard shops generally don't have goggle replacement lens. It will take you time to find any replacement.

When do you know what colors of lens to wear during a specified weather?

Use light colored snowboarding goggles to provide better contrast during overcast conditions. Yellow lenses are advisable.

Wear darker shades like purple during a bright, sunny day to minimize eye strain. The sun's glare will make it hard for you to get a clear view of where you are heading.

Where do you go to get the best deals in snowboarding goggles? The best place to find cheaper snowboarding goggles is online. You may verify at websites of manufacturers or sellers of this product and see if they offer discounts.
