k so i wasn't sure where to post this, but because its goggles, i figured ski gabber.

k so i have dragon rouge's, and between the two lenses there is like a smudge? or something? and it blocks my complete left side vision. i have tried like a hairdryer to try to heat it out if it was fog or something. but that didn't work. its been there for a week, and not i'm like, screwed.

does anyone know how to fix this?

did you just get the goggles new? if you did you can send a message to the company that sold it to you and they might send you new lenses. i got mine and they had a huge scratch on them. if not then your just gunna have to deal with it or get new goggles

Uh oh. That might have not been such a good idea. I'm not sure if Dragon puts that anti-fog stuff on their lenses like Anon and Oakley do, but if they do, then the high heat of the hair dryer may have destroyed that. I don't know how you would fix the original problem other than not wearing them for a few days and letting them dry out in room temperature conditions, but I hope the hairdryer didn't create any additional problems.

Its in the that little piece of paper that you threw out when you first opened the box.


At this day and age, you would think most people know this.

It's not that you're not supposed to wipe the inside, it's just that you're not supposed to wipe it while it's wet.

Wiping it to clear off fingerprints and water residue when it's dry is fine.
