solutions for - rain + glasses ???

Contacts for me too.

If there is a large wave (or one of the little buggers pops out, which is not unheard of....), I've got at least partial vision to get back/drive home.

I just don't feel comfortable being perched on the rocks at night knowing that one knock/wave/head movement could render me at a significant disadvantage vision-wise when the glasses go off into the dark.

Mind you, contacts have their disadvantages too. I had one night when I was catching blues one after the other, all 6-7 lb. I had one held with the lip gripper in one hand, pliers in the other hand ready to unhook it when the little sod (deliberately?) managed to scoop up a tailful of sand right into my face.

Sand in both eyes. Under the contacts. No hands free, and the blue now trying everything it could to shake it's way back to the sea.

Agony.

The fishing gods took pity on me and I managed to blink the sand out from under the contacts (something of miracle there). I proceeded to unhook the blue and return it to the sea, but not without going through a good part of my more colourful vocabulary........

when you use rainx your still a couple of feet away
from your windshield with your eyes and glasses
allowing you to look between the rain drops

but when you have raindrops right on the outside
of your glasses then your looking thru the raindrop
making vision or seeing impossible...

i was wondering if wearing some clear ski goggles
or even a diving mask might achieve the same
thing...allowing you to see around the drops...

applying rainx to the outside of either the ski goggles
or face mask would allow the rain drops to run off
instead of just sitting there same as on a windshield.

just a thought ....instead of lazik surgery or contacts

i was watching a show on sharpening tools ect...on the history
channel & they were saying that the lazik lazer beam made
cuts 200 times smaller than a human hair...
dam thats accurate !!! and with that knowledge.........
i am more ready to undergo the procedure than before.

If you can't wear contacts, here is a solution for you. It's only $3.99 at stupid.com. I swear, I'm not making this up.
