I'm normally very anal about wearing eye and ear protection in the shop, and a mask when painting, sanding, fiberglassing, or whatever where health calls for it.

however I almost always have problems w/ having to choose between a respirator mask or eye protection, I find most masks cause glasses to fog up quickly.

Today working in my attic it was driving me crazy, in this case fiberglass and general dust everywhere adding air baffles for the soffit eaves, what a crappy job when you have a low-pitch roof.
Any good devices or solution for this?
 
I specialize in indoor air quality which sometimes calls for mold remediation in crawl spaces and attics and everything in between. I got sick of safety glasses cause they didn't stop everything floating around from getting in my eyes and things that manage to fall down from the side and somehow still squeeze in behind the glasses and right into my eye!
Now I use a 3M full face shield/respirator combo. The fogging up sucks so I use the rainX anti fog wipes and it helps a lot! Since its plastic and not glass it still fogs a little but not near as bad. The wipes help on the glasses a lot too.
