Before I found the adhesive metal nose strips I was considering trying sticking the top edge of the mask to my face with double sided tape! 😳2.22kWp Solar PV system installed Oct 2010, Fronius IG20 Inverter, south facing (-5 deg), 30 degree pitch, no shadingEverything will be alright in the end so, if it’s not yet alright, it means it’s not yet the endMFW #4 OPs: 2018 £866.89, 2019 £1322.33, 2020 £1337.07

I do need them for distance, but slightly blurry is better than not seeing anything at all.

Without my glasses I can’t see anything more than 6 feet away clearly enough to be able to manage without them.2.22kWp Solar PV system installed Oct 2010, Fronius IG20 Inverter, south facing (-5 deg), 30 degree pitch, no shadingEverything will be alright in the end so, if it’s not yet alright, it means it’s not yet the endMFW #4 OPs: 2018 £866.89, 2019 £1322.33, 2020 £1337.07

The best by far is adhesive metal nose strips attached to the outside (remove any existing nose strips first)
The ones I bought are these https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B08DLN7PDK/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 , but you may be able to find them available locally. (I didn’t need 100 but have been distributing to friends with the same problem.)
I bought these from Amazon at £6.99 for 100 pieces:100PCS 3M Aluminum Strips Nose Wire, Nose Bridge for Mask, Metal Flat Nose Clips, Homemade Nose Clips, Aluminum Nose Bridge Strips,DIY Wire for Sewing Crafts
The strips in your link ARE cheaper. However, I chose the above strips because they are 3M and they have 91 ratings.
I'm pleased to report that when I go shopping and need to wear both my face mask and reading specs, I don't have misting or fog episodes anymore.10 Dec 2007 - Led Zeppelin - I was there. :j [/COLOR]:cool2: I wear my 50 (gold/red/white) blood donations pin badge with pride.
