Treat your glasses with an anti fog treatment, daily. Also, make sure that there is a good goggles seal around your face, so that moisture does not get in, but air can. Avoid putting your goggles up on your hat, or helmet when you stop :-)

I have been using Hilco Fog Buster for several years. Works for me. I get mine from this UK supplier.

I too wear glasses and it is an absolute nightmare the otg goggles seemed fine in the shop but on the mountain... the main thing is to keep both goggles and glasses at the same temp.. as Bandit says dont park the goggles on your head.. and then put them over your cold glasses..instant fog!!
I am currently looking at adidas climacool which have rx optical inserts expensive but if you search a lot can get them for around £150 ...or wear contacts.!
its all going rapidly downhill!

I bought a pair of Smith Knowledge OTG which comes with a fan this past week. I skied with them yesterday and they work. You can hear the fan going but after a while I got used to it. I paid CDN$180.

My new goggles this year were Uvex OTG's. I don't wear glasses, but the OTG models seemed to be a better fit for me. I wore them for two days, and had no problems at all with misting, even after stops etc.

Putting your goggs on your hat is a proper no no, simples.
