What bothers me the most is the 10,000 tiny drops of water, each with a glare from car and street lights.
I refuse to switch to contacts because it seems like another thing for me to have to perform maintenance on, so screw it. I am facing the same problem though, I absolutely can't use my glasses in the rain. Even the fog is annoying - pulling them down on my nose is fine, but when I push them back it inevitably screws up my glasses-mounted mirror.
So I need glasses on which to mount a mirror, but I can't use lenses in the rain/fog. I'm actually ******** enough that I'm thinking of finding a cheap pair of frames or reading glasses or something and popping the lenses out so I'll have something to mount my mirror to. Might try Rain-X for the glasses too.
Fortunately, my vision isn't so bad that I absolutely can't see without them, so dumb solutions like the above might work.
