Zenni Releases New Anti-Fog Glasses Lenses to Address Mask-Related Fogging

Zenni announced a 2-in-1 anti-fog + anti-reflective lens solution to solve a pain point for glasses wearers during the pandemic. Developed in 2020 as a response to the pervasive consumer issue of glasses fogging up while wearing face coverings, these new anti-fog coated lenses are the only low priced fog-resistant glasses on the market, with the new lenses priced at just $12.95, according to Zenni.

Zenni said its new lenses allow essential workers to work comfortably and see clearly while wearing protective face coverings.

“We continually hear that one of the biggest frustrations for glasses wearers during the pandemic is lenses fogging up and obstructing vision. We mobilized quickly to develop a high-quality product that addresses the need for people at a fraction of the price of other options on the market,” Bai Gan, Chief Product Officer at Zenni, said in the news release.

Zenni’s innovation team leveraged scientific research and new technology to develop a unique system to prevent fogging for glasses wearers, while staying at an attainable price for consumers. Each pair of anti-fog coated lenses comes with a special lens cloth that activates the anti-fog properties to help lenses stay clear, no matter the circumstances. When used together, the lens coating with activator lens cloth can provide several hours of fog-free lenses before needing to wipe with the lens cloth again. Zenni’s activator cloth lasts far longer than any other on the market—for up to 12 months and 1,000 uses. The lenses also come with the added benefit of anti-reflective coating to reduce glare.

Beyond the pandemic use case, Zenni anti-fog lenses provide a solution for glasses wearers in cold, rainy or humid weather, as well as for outdoor athletes, as lens fogging happens anytime there is a temperature difference between a wearer’s glasses and the outside environment. That’s why glasses can fog up after walking into a warm room after being out in the cold. Fog can even occur when cooking over a stove, drinking hot beverages, opening the dishwasher or oven – Zenni’s new anti-fog and anti-glare lenses ensure comfort, safety and well-being for glasses wearers in any environment.
