As anyone who owns crowbars knows, there is a double lens. My problem is that the outside of the inner lens has fog and is dirty. How can this be fixed? +++Karma +++ for help!

well yeah thats an obvious solution, but i dont think you realize what i'm saying...the fog and residue is between the 2 lenses on the outer part of the inner lens.

Submerge it, shake off excess water, leave to dry standing up so the water drains out.

Here are three options:

1. Swap the lense with some kid and say there brand spanking new or when there not looking.

2. don't know if this work but cut the the first lense off (Carefully) and clean it out and put some sought of clear strip over the first lense.

3. Send it to Oakley hopefully they replace it.

I wouldn't go with the second option make that your last backup.

Just my two cents.

if anything im going with option 3, saying things are in better condition than they are is low and i personally like to keep my sales legit.
