Hi.
I've always worn cycling glasses up until recently. They stop the bugs getting into your eye's and the cold wind irritating them as well. As the weather's warmed up recently I've found them to be more of a hindrance though. Yes they still stop unwanted flies and dust, but I've noticed they can also cause problems. When cycling i always try to cycle to my physical limits to the point sweat pours off me. After around 20 miles the foam inserts of my helmet are saturated and the sweat runs out straight onto the back of my cycling glasses lenses. It gets that bad i have to stop to clean them up, usually with my cycling shirt. There then left hazy because even my shirt is not dry anymore. I've also noticed my eyes get very sore wearing glasses too. I think it's down to the heat and sweat not being able to evaporate away from my face quickly enough because of the glasses. The salt really does sting my eyes sometimes spoiling a good ride out. Riding without them though really helps. The breeze across my face quickly whips away unwanted beads of sweat and my eyes are not irritated. Maybe ive got the wrong style of glasses (who knows) and another pair may sort it out 👓🤔.
All the very best 👍
