Eye Glasses in TK helmet

[Racasey06[TK]]

Hi everyone. I'm waiting for my AP suit to arrive this week. Can't wait. Been reading a ton in anticipation but I'm lost for this. Does anyone have any advice on keeping eye glasses in place? Or keep them from fogging up? Perhaps any ideas on how to build an old pair into the TK helmet? I'll survive for the time being without sound and being able to talk, but I will need to see.

Prescription goggles would be the best guess I think

I can't wear glasses in my bucket since I have to twist and turn to get it on (ATA). Plus you can't see regardless. As for fogging up fans help but I wipe my lens with a soapy towel also.

I have an RT Mod helmet.  I have no issue wearing glasses or having them fog up inside.  I had an ATA helmet as well but couldn't fit the glasses in so i sold it.

Assuming you don't already do this, if you do then just disregard, but try wearing a balaclava.  I have a rather tight fitting one and while I don't wear glasses, it does hold my mic in place without having to use tape.

It might help in keeping the glasses in place.  I have a fan system in my helmet that keeps the lens from fogging up.

A friend of mine uses the anti-fog wax stick for his lenses. I haven't tried them on glasses yet but they should work as he tried it on his bathroom mirror and it works.

I have these prescription lens inserts bookmarked to check out but haven't looked closely yet:

You can also get press-on lenses in some prescriptions - here's one place I've found. They're made for dive masks but may fit in TK lenses.

Can't guarantee anything but may be worth a look.

I use these press-on lenses and they work great. No fogging, very good sight compared to no glasses and no fudling with glasses under the helmet

I agree with what's been posted above. I also have an ATA and there's no way I can wear my glasses. I'm glad I'm not blind and it doesn't matter that I can't wear them. Fans are awesome and worth having for sure. The balaclava works great to keep them in place as several squad members here wear them.
