Yes Chris thanks, link didn't copy correctly
Woof - a lady who works in my local shop uses a visor. I assumed they were permitted.

I did wonder when I was in hospital, some staff wore a mask and a visor.

Well I will be trying the tape method and I will report back next week.
Lol at Bobbi & Barsel!!!
I can't wear my glasses with a mask on. Frustrating.
Sharon - I wear a visor most of the time as a change from cloying masks and I never have a problem in any shops. A lot of people wear them. Mine is the sort that fits on with 'glasses' (no glass in them) and is very comfortable.
They will fit over your ordinary glasses by the way.
Re visors:

Quote: "A face visor or shield may be worn in addition to a face covering but not instead of one. This is because face visors or shields do not adequately cover the nose and mouth."

I haven't been out much, save limited occasions between shielding and shielding again but I found having the metal bit on masks helped. I'd mould it over the bridge of my nose as high up as I could (while still making sure it covered my lower face properly) and move the bridge of my glasses over the metal bit.

I found mine would only usually fog up if I was rushing and breathing more heavily through my mouth so would try and breath more gently through my nose.

I've seen people say something about cleaning the lenses with something which helps them not to fog up, washing up liquid maybe, I'll see if I can find it (and that it's ok for lenses) unless it's already on another link.
???
have I mist something ?
Rub a tiny drop of washing up liquid on your glasses.
Also, make sure your disposable mask is the right way up, with the firmer bit across your nose. For ages I was going around with the flappy edge at the top and not being able to see a thing.
I wasn't imaging it! Soapy water apparently, including with washing up liquid. Some other ideas too like shaving foam!

Anti fog/mist wipes/cloths from Amazon, sorry can't do links works for me.
Does this link help, MTW1?
Amazon.co.uk User Recommendation
Can't remember where I saw it but someone on TV recommended sticking a triple folded tissue under the metal strip part of the mask that goes over the nose.
Cheers Chris, I'm going to try that next time I go out. My glasses are always fogging up.
