So I just cinched the balaclava in as close as possible all around my eyes, and left my eyes exposed. And honestly it wasn't too bad. Usually I need glasses to keep bugs and dust out of my eyes, but apparently in the cold winter that seems to not be as much of a problem.
I couldn't go without glasses for very long. The wind - even just what is created by riding - would dry my eyes out too quickly.
I use clear safety glasses I picked up from Lowe's. I wear a balaclava, but never over my mouth or nose. I can't get enough air flow if I cover my mouth. I think that's why I never have a problem with the glasses fogging.
