Picked up my new transition glasses today with new S-lens & WOW super clear & I don't have to move my head up or down/ left or right to see. Just like 20-20 in my 40s & younger move my eyes to object & focus right in. Really good results & recomend s-lens to anyone. Only downfall to new s-lens is high cost but worth it to me so if time for new glasses look into it.......... Ok looks like I need to wear glasses when riding & have BRP mod hat that works pretty well but glasses still fog. So what is the best anti-fog wax or spray that really works & I'll buy some?
Thanks,

Hmmm, are you sure you have a good seal on the breath box? Facial hair will mess up the seal if you're sporting a beard or heavy "scruff". I never have a problem with my mod helmet and glasses. I do like to crack the shield open a click if I'm stopped for over a minute, just to avoid the possibility of fogging.

The seal is as tight as I can get it but I'm a heavy mouth breather broke my nose when I was a kid. Can you believe it ?....belly flopped on ice with my fexiable flyer on a double dog dare plowed up about 10 feet of ice with my nose & Mom was PISSED when her baby boy came home with a broken nose!!! LOL... Anywho carry extra mask & inserts but still glasses fog if I stop a real PITA so want to try a good antifog wax or spray but so many on net need to know which ones work?

Sounds like something worth looking into. I hate trying to work on a ladder and look up at my work, I have to bend my head so far back to see, I almost fall off the darn ladder.
I need the transitions too. Hate it when I jump in the other car and my sunglasses are in the truck!

I know this sounds extreme but I used to wear glasses, I never found anything that worked. I then switched to contacts and have been wearing them ever since. If thats not an option, again I know its extreme, but I would highly recommend lasik eye surgery if your a candidate. It solves all the problems but obviously its expensive. Last but least, I used to just re apply anti fog every time I stopped, that worked best for me.

WD- I had the same problem and switched to the NO FOG mask and it helped out a ton. I think R U Outside makes one as well. Little weird looking but they work.

Looks like cataract surgery for me in right eye & could have done this now but not confident in having surgery in WI northwoods & don't know where else to go at this point? Even with the cataract surgery I would need glasses with slight correction so for now glasses only way for me & hoping there is really good antifog wax or spray out there.

300 working days 5 surgeries a day/ two eyes per person = 700 people. it just a rough estimate. any more and your like a car on an assembly line. any less and the surgical team might not be the most proficient.

Yes I agree & need to find place where it is routine & doc is proficient. Could be Chicago if I feel I need to go that far.

Try "FOG Eliminator" from Nikon Sport Optics.
It's a 6"x7"cloth - reusable with a DRY compound that stops condensation and fog forming on lens surfaces.
I have talked to numerous people that have used this for scuba diving and say it's the best product ever for anti-fogging on their scuba masks. They have told me that Nikon
should promote it fo that sport. I use it on all my riflescopes and binoculars and it works great, comes in a 3 pack and is about $7.99 per 3 pk. Available at Mill's Fleet Farms, Gander Mts and Scheels to name a few.

you can have it done at a surgery center. my father in law had it done in marshfield. wausau, marshfield, greenbay, eau claire, marquette all good places. not sure if i would go to valleyview but rinelander would be ok. sorry for the off topic

No need to go further than Green Bay / De Pere. I live in Chicago most of the time, but have my eye work done at this excellent clinic in Green Bay. It's right off highway 41. I was referred to them by my eye doc in Norway Mich. just outside of Iron Mountain. My mom had her lenses replaced there a few years ago and everything went very smooth. Yes...they can actually take off your real eye ball lenses and put on new 20/20 vision permanent lenses. gives me the willies thinking about it....I can give you more details about the place if you want.

It won't interfere with our riding this year but probably have it done next Fallish maybe early Nov next year. Recovery time very fast too just not thrilled about exchanging my parts for man made parts. If you say this is a good place good enough for me & we can talk about it when we ride together.
Thanks,
Pete
