Wearing glasses can significantly improve our vision and quality of life, but when the rain starts pouring, it can become quite challenging to maintain clear vision. Raindrops on the lenses can obstruct our view, making it difficult to navigate our surroundings. However, with a few simple tips and tricks, you can overcome this obstacle and enjoy clear vision even on rainy days. In this blog post, we will explore effective ways to wear glasses when it's raining.
Choose glasses with hydrophobic coatings
When purchasing your next pair of round or Aviator glasses, consider lenses with hydrophobic coatings. These coatings repel water, allowing raindrops to slide off the lenses more easily. Hydrophobic coatings create a thin film on the surface, preventing water from forming droplets and ensuring better visibility during rainfall.
Adjust your glasses position
Positioning your glasses correctly on your face can help reduce rainwater accumulation on the lenses. Push your glasses slightly forward on your nose so that they sit closer to your eyebrows. This slight adjustment can create a small gap between the lenses and your face, minimizing direct exposure to raindrops.
Wear a brimmed hat or cap
A brimmed hat or cap can act as a shield, providing additional protection for your glasses during rainy weather. The brim will help divert the raindrops away from your lenses, allowing you to see clearly. Plus, it adds a stylish touch to your rainy-day outfit!
Keep a microfiber cloth handy
Carry a microfiber cloth with you at all times, especially on rainy days. Raindrops and humidity can create smudges on your lenses, hindering your vision further. Use the microfiber cloth to gently wipe away any moisture or smudges that may accumulate on your glasses. It's important to use a microfiber cloth as it is designed to clean lenses effectively without scratching them.
Use an umbrella or a raincoat with a hood
One of the easiest ways to protect your new Versace glasses from rain is by using an umbrella or wearing a raincoat with a hood. These protective measures can shield your glasses from the direct impact of raindrops, keeping them relatively dry. Ensure the umbrella covers your head and glasses adequately to prevent water from dripping onto your lenses.
Consider anti-fog solutions
Rainy weather often comes with high humidity, leading to foggy lenses. To combat this issue, consider using anti-fog solutions specifically designed for glasses. These solutions form a thin layer on the lenses, preventing fog from forming and ensuring clear visibility. Follow the manufacturer's instructions when applying the solution to your glasses.
Avoid excessive wiping
When raindrops accumulate on your glasses, it's tempting to continuously wipe them off. However, this can create smudges or scratches on the lenses, further impairing your vision. Instead, gently tap the side of your glasses to remove excess water. If necessary, use the microfiber cloth mentioned earlier to remove any remaining moisture.
