[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can never understand adults refusing to wear a mask. [/quote]

I can't see if I where a mask because my glasses fog up. It's particularly bad if it's cold outside. I will wear masks if I'm close to others, but I don't wear them if I don't have to.[/quote]

I wear glasses too. Pull the mask up your nose, put the glasses on top of the mask. This usually works for me.[/quote]

Have your been outside in cold weather? That doesn't work. Yes, it blocks the air from coming up by your nose, but not by your cheek bones.  The colder weather is much less forgiving because the water vapor condenses so much more easily.[/quote]

Mine fog up too. I deal with it. Adult. [/quote]

If it's true you have glasses, then I doubt you spend much time outside. Particularly doing anything that gets your breathing rate up. Otherwise you quite literally won't be able to see in front of yourself.[/quote]

I not only wear glasses, I wear progressives.  giant ones. Believe me I understand. I still keep my mask on. Some of them I’ve sound wires into and some of them I just deal with fog until I’m alone and can adjust it. Some people I know use a little double stick tape. I prefer not to do that so I just tough it out when I don’t have the nose wires. It’s [/quote]

Not fun coming in from outside or outside from in but once you transition to whatever the temperature is it’s fine. If you’re having this much of a problem you’re wearing the wrong kind of mask. [/quote]

I've tried a ton of masks. Ones with and without eyes. Ones with foam gaskets above the nose and cheeks. One with 3 layers with a filter, and single layer. I've tried KN95s, surgical masks and cloth masks. They all fog up my glasses, particularly in cold weather.

I've tried anti-fogger on my glasses. That helps a bit, but not much.

I've even tried taping the bridge of my nose to the mask, which is incredibly annoying. That mostly worked in the summer, but in the winter the limited water vapor that makes it through and around the mask is enough to fog up glasses.

I don't believe either of you are doing extended activities in masks outside.[/quote]
