Face masks for glasses wearers, any good solutions?

[singlecoil]

I pretty much have to wear glasses whenever I am working, normally not a problem because usually I am on my own in the workshop.. Occasionally I get a visitor, or have to visit a potential client and then I have a problem, my glasses immediately steam up because the mask doesn't fit sufficiently well around my nose. The wire inserts reduce this effect but don't eliminate it.

Any suggestions apart from contact lenses or rhinoplasty?

Thanks for all the advice everybody.

A few of my glasses wearing friends use these (or something similar) regularly and say that it helps.

Might be worth a try for a fiver.

I've ordered some of those, they look like they'll do the job and they will probably come before the meeting I've got scheduled for Tuesday.

Please update once you've used them.
I've been suffering a lot from mask fog, too. It's a pain.

They arrived today. The instructions, what there are of them, are not very useful. I believe the idea is that you slide the top edge of the mask into a curved channel which is 3d printed and has a narrow part at the open end of the channel. Hopefully it will stay put when you've done that. I've tried it with the paper disposable type and it works reasonably well, just the occasional bit of exhaled air gets past the nose and causes a small amount of condensation, nowhere near as much as without the clip and not enough to be a nuisance.

I also tried it with a fabric mask bought from Etsy which it clearly isn't designed for, but I managed to force the top edge in and it works even better, no misting at all. I shall be going to a meeting tomorrow and will take both masks just in case the clip comes off one of them.

I recommend them.
