glasses vs. contacts

I've worn glasses for many years but after a few rainy winters of bike commuting I'm starting to get tired of not being able to see very well when it is dark & raining. Fogged up glasses is no longer an issue, I simply pull my glasses down to the edge of my nose when I have to stop at traffic lights, then push them back when I get to go. What bothers me the most is the 10,000 tiny drops of water, each with a glare from car and street lights.

Have any of you switched to contacts just because of the issues of riding in the rain?

Were you bothered by the rain now hitting your eyes?

Was it worth it?

Did you eventually switch back to glasses?
