The really bad thing about Optifog is, thats it's almost impossible to clean your glasses, whne they are not activated. I tried it and would never do it again. An you don't have to activate the glasses once a week. You have to do it at least every second day or the effect is gone.
Brilliant marketing, bad product.

There are many Anti-Fog products on the market, some of it better than others. There is no permanent anti fog existing.

It has been proven that hydrophilic coatings of any type will get saturated and following that they will not work anymore. Therefore one is better off to use something you can re-apply it when needed.

Better Hydrophilic (Anti-Fog) temporary coatings will also have an Anti-Static property and will prevent dirt and dust from clinging to the lens surfaces, so they actually keep a pair of glasses cleaner longer. Sometimes you can go by cleaning glasses every 3-4 days and then re-apply the anti-fog of your choice.

Mark,
Are you serious about Rain X? I know it's been a couple of years since this post, but I'm on a hunt for an anti-fog solution that will work with any old lens, AR or not. I guess I could try it out on my own glasses before suggesting it to a patient. Or make sure the patient's glasses are still under warranty when they apply it. ;)
If anyone has any new suggestions on anti fog I'd be happy to hear it. I just ordered some towelettes from Hilco, only to see that they can't be used on AR lenses. Uggh.
Thanks.

gotta love great marketing, take an old idea that sucked in the first place and act like its some new and a amazing. instead of wasting 10mil on advertisements for more crap why not give me that money and call it a day. Ryser should start selling them his stuff, id be amazed at how good they would make it sound, and probably make him a billionair in the process.

Maybe they already do...........................We make some seizable bulk sales to some companies that act as an intermediary in the New York area, every 2-3 month's, and we have no idea where the stuff actually goes and is used for.

However the largest use is on automotive and motor cycle dashboards, by now, on just about every major brand world wide, a trend that started on motocycles in 2004.
