So, I'm sure that there are others dealing with the same problem, and I want to know how you solved it...
I wear glasses (don't suggest I switch to contacts; I've tried that but my eyes dont like them), and I constantly have a problem with fog building up *every single time* I exhale. It's freaking annoying. And, in the near future, could effect patient care.
Some surgical masks work better than others (the more foam over the bridge of the nose, the better), but even then I have to exhale slowly so I don't fog up everything.
Is there some sort of surgical mask you guys have found which makes it *impossible* to fog up your glasses? And is it normal for a med student to carry a bunch of 'personal' surgical masks with them (or would some look at me like im a freak?)?
Am I even looking the right way at this problem?
