There seems to be issues with wiping the inside of the lens and it reducing the fog resistant coating. How does one correct that?

In my personal experience, I had no trouble at all with the fog. Even when I had terrible weather while skiing. I highly recommend these goggles.In case they get snow inside, I suggest drying them naturally and perhaps using a tissue for the outside lens.

You shouldn't need to wipe the inside often, if at all. Don't rest them on your forehead and they won't fog. If you somehow get snow inside them shake/blow it out and allow them to air dry. With all the vents they will dry and un-fog themselves quickly. If you treat them well, they will treat you well.

You have to make sure you buy the correct lens cleaner for the lenses, only wipe them with a dry microfiber cloth and never wipe them with your fingers. Sounds impossible but the coating works great and it keeps the fog away 99% of the time. Whenever I got some fog I just wiped in some more of the protectant(comes with the goggles) and boom good to go.

I haven't noticed it getting hot and you can replace the plastic lens with a tempered glass lens for a very little bit of money, that should stop any fogging.

I left a review. It looked like new for a few months. Then it developed a haze. The clear coat seems to become opaque. It does scratch easily also. After 1 year I re-did mine because I hated the hazy look again. It was much easier to de-do because most of the oxidation was already sanded off last year. I prefered the Wipe New due to easier to use sanding pad and pre-soaked clear coat micro fiber patch applied it evenly and easily without runs or dripping. I used the rag afterwords on the black plastic trim and tailight lenses to amazing effect. I expect it will also haze after a year and be hard to remove but it looks fantastic for now.

Goodness I hope you've figured this out already but we had a similar issue. Adjusting the knob on the lens helped clear that up.

There should be a felt like material that is coated with a carbon based powder to help remove smudges and oil from your lenses. From your description of what happened, it sounds like you got a defective one. I don't use the Nikon Lens pen, I only use original Lens Pen brand cleaning pens. You pay extra for the Nikon brand name printed on the side, but the Original lens pen is exactly the same and cheaper to boot.

By default, yes. Apply your own anti-fog treatment to the lens (Johnson and Johnson's Baby Shampoo mixed with a lot of water works well).

Sorry, I cannot help you. I just leave the monocular in the protective sheath and wipe the lenses from time to time with a computer screen cleaner. Joe W

Take a little dish washing liquid, coat the inside of the lense and leave it overnight. Rinse the lense clean with water in the morning and let air dry. that should solve the problem.

I wear glasses, no problems here. Maybe my glasses are small enough to avoid fogging? Not sure.

Yes, but apply the cleaning solution to the cloth you're using instead of directly to the lens.

Can you tell me where I can find the do it yourself instructions for for internal cleaning on this lense?Thanks

This is a mild abrasive, it does not "fill in" scratches, it removes the material around the scratches and polishes. A lot of plastic lenses have been "coated" to make them scratch-resistant, and this will remove the coating. If your only other choice is to replace the lenses anyway, you could give it a try.

I put mine in that locking box which I think protected it some from weather but I am sure it got wet without insult. Sometimes the lens was affected by water droplets but that is not a malfunction. As for cold, I think it ran out of juice faster in cold weather, a problem solved with lithium batteries albeit an expensive option.

I have not had this problem. I would suggest some cleaner. Perhaps the manufacturer can make a recommendation based on the exact materials used to make the lenses.

Yes! I wear glasses and I have yet to find them fogged up, but spend most of my time in a temperature-regulated environment. Just keep in mind if you have larger frames they might impact the way the seal fits.

The short answer is "no" but I picked up some anti-fog spray in the optical dept. at WalMart and applied it before I ever wore them at the range. I had fogging problems with other glasses previously but so far, at the same range and under the same conditions, no fogging problem with these glasses. I hope this helps.
