I wear glasses when i play because i can't see for the life in me. I found that I couldn't wear my glasses with my I4's so i got grills and i find wearing the glasses fine but my glasses are steaming up instead of my lens. I have yet to get a thermal lens for them but for now they are fine.

Any advice from the other glasses wearing players on what i can do to help prevent then from fogging up?

cheers

Are contact lenses an option for you? I buy one month supply of high end daily contact lenses a year (30 pairs) and use them at big events. Not a massive cost but really worth it.

I have grillz with a flexr fan fitted and my glasses never fog in them so maybe if you must wear your specs the fan is the answer.

I used to wear glasses, and always took them off to play, because of the whole steaming up issue. Consequently, I never could see particularly well. In the end, I got laser surgery, which was some of the best money I've ever spent.

Although I often wonder what it would have been like if I'd had 20/20 vision. Sigh....

Contact lens's aren't exactly an option for me. I was thinking of getting some anti fogging stuff but I don't know what's good and works or what is crap. I heard about the jt fans but I don't know if they fit my grills?

I have the same problem. Really phobic about anything near my eyes, just can't handle contacts! Currently I play with no glasses, but will be following this thread carefully.

I wear conracts when playing, a lot better than glasses and you get used to taking them in and out

The FlexR fan is universal fitment and works well with the grillz. Pricey at £40 though so try the cat crap first and see if it works for you.

That's a bit pricey ATM. Thought people were taking Micky with the catcrap stuff. How does it work then?and what's the best place to get it?
