Might aswel give an update on this, I just got new prescription and 2 new glasses, ( thin arms around the ear) and got contacts aswel, so the days I forget about the contacts I have thin armed glasses so won't hurt my ears as much but won't stop the fogging I'm afraid, new shark helmet coming in January me thinks!
Com-on santy!!!! :D

My 2 penneth on this subject, had my eyes lasered over 10 years ago, now wearing glasses again, I have found best solution for me with steaming up of glasses and visor is to put a bit of plain shaving foam oninside surface, then wipe clear leaving a thin film.Works each time I ride,do the same again next time. :)

You missed out this bit from your quote of gryphonogram "now wearing glasses again"
Your eyes (musles) change over your life and the lazer is a fixed moment in time as your musles were then.
One thing that always makes me think is that if one eye is not as good as the other say through injury (double image perhaps) your brain is very good at working out which eye is the correct "picture" and filters out the bad ones muck up------ so why dont you just get one eye lazered and let your brain do the rest.
I don't do rain or threat there of. dry rider only with no shame.
