No Clear Impression So Far |
|
"The drops seem to do what they are supposed to, but it is too soon to tell how well or how long-lasting. Also, the instructions say that they work best with some other liquid that is used for preparation of new surfaces. Since I hadn't known about or ordered that, I don't know if the combination would have performed better than this product alone." |

Great Product |
|
This worked extremely well on my goggles that I use for paintball. Even with physical exertion such as running the goggles never clouded once during the day that I had applied the Sea Drops. I also applied the solution to my sun glasses which tend to fog up. They have done wonders at preventing any fogging with them as well, even weeks later. |

"SEA DROPS IS NOT FOR USE ON SWIM GOGGLES" |
|
I bought this product based on the favorable reviews to help defog lenses of swim goggles in our new pool. Unfortunately, this product really didn't seem to work well, lasting maybee 10 minutes before lenses would fog again. There are two techniques for applying the drops listed on the bottle, one to apply and rinse, the other to air dry and buff out...neither worked for me. After several tries, I went back to the bottle to figure out what I was doing incorrectly, and imagine my surprise when I saw in all bold letters "SEA DROPS IS NOT FOR USE ON SWIM GOGGLES". There is no explanation why it excludes swim goggles. My guess is the chlorine breaks the product down since it is so shot lived on the goggles. This was a disapointment since it isn't clear from the product description that it isn't for swim goggles. |

It works! (apparently, even with swim goggles) |
I bought this product to keep my swim goggles from fogging up, so I was a little disappionted when I read on the bottle that it was not for use with swim goggles, presumably because the concentration was too strong. Reading where another person here, said he/she used the solution with swim goggles too, despite the manufacturer's warning, I tried the posted recommendation of letting it dry first, polishing the lens, and then thoroughly flushing it with water before putting it on. And to my surprise, it worked extremely well. For swim goggles it only took a single drop per lens too, so this small bottle should last a long, long time.
Actually, at first I didn't flush the goggles after polishing them with a tissue, as the other poster had suggested, and I felt some slight eye irritation as a result. But rubbing water onto the lens with my finger, as if to remove any trace of the solution, not only eliminated the eye irritation but to my surprise the anti-fog still maintained its effectiveness. I wore the goggles for about 2.5 hours, straight, while swimming and playing in the pool with my niece and nephew the following day, and the solution never lost it's anti-fog effect. When I hit the lake the day after that, the original coat was still working pretty well, but I only stayed in the water for about 20-30 minutes this time, and by the time I got out it looked like it could benefit from another application.
Some people may be more sensitive than I am to whatever chemical(s) is used in the solution that can cause eye irritation, so I'm not advocating ignoring the manufacturer's recommendation, mind you - just sharing my experience, after several uses, to help corroborate what another poster said for anyone looking to try it. If I go blind in a years time, I'll know the probable cause. |

Convenient but short lived |
|
I cleaned our 3 masks with soapy water and multiple toothpaste cleanings to remove factory oils/residue. Used a few drops inside and out, and tried to keep fingers clean. Our masks would be very clear for about 20 minutes of snorkling warm water, until the fog set in. I kept the convenient size bottle in my swim shorts, but rarely was able to reapply while treading in deeper waters, where a water rinse was more convenient. I might try baby shampoo next as a comparison, before I pass judgement. |
