Unless you ride for a factory team you aren’t going to be running a new set of goggles every time you line up at the starting gates, however eye protection is a necessity and if you don’t take care of your goggles you will either be forking out more money that you should, or you will be riding around feeling like you are driving a car at night with only your parking lights on! Luckily goggles aren’t too difficult to maintain if you know how, so read on to learn some secrets to clear vision and goggle foam that doesn’t feel like sandpaper on your face!
Motocross goggles can sometimes get a rough deal, they are sweated in excessively, get pelted with mud and rocks on the track and then half the riders out there throw them back into their gear bag in with their boots only to be removed the next race day to be cleaned on a tee shirt!
Goggle lenses are treated with a coating on the inner and outer side to optimise vision and reduce fogging. This finish can be quite delicate particularly on the inner side, avoid using chemicals in cleaning agents such as “Windex” type cleaners as although they will clean your lens the ammonia will eventually turn the lens brittle and cracks will begin to appear and run through the lens.
The best method is light soap and warm water. Submerge the goggles completely and gently work the soapy water through the goggle foam, if there is any mud built up, allow the water to soak the mud until it falls off the lens, you can further clean the goggle lens with a microfiber cloth or using your goggle bag.
You should also wash your goggle bag regularly as you can use this at the track to clean your goggles on race day. Do not use a tee shirt, towel or your motocross gloves to wipe dirt off a lens as you will grind dirt particles into the lens which will scratch them.
Washing your goggles in water regularly will also prolong the life of the goggle foam, sweat will deteriorate foam after a while making it brittle and cause it to crumble and fall apart. Do not throw your goggles in the washing machine as the rough nature of the wash cycle can damage the goggles and some washing detergents can also be too harsh on the lens.
Let your goggles dry in a cool place out of the sun and avoid placing them back in the goggle bag until they are completely dry as trapped moisture can also damage the foam.
If you are having trouble with your goggles continually fogging you may want to use something like “Fog Off” or Scott Anti Fog Spray this is safe to use on your lens and very effective in colder conditions.
Always keep your goggles in their soft case, or better yet a goggle box / goggle bag which is a great way to keep all of your goggles, spare lenses, tear offs and any other goggle accessory all together. This prevent them from being mixed up with a dirty set of motocross boots inside your gear bag which spells disaster for your goggles! If you don’t have a goggle box, keep them in the soft case and place them inside of your helmet to keep them safe.
Always run at least one tear off lens, even on the hottest driest day with only one other bike on the track, having an extra layer of protection over your goggle lens will improve its lifespan. On muddy days always be prepared with plenty of tear offs to avoid being filled in and throwing your goggles off the side of the track mid race. Another helpful item riding in super muddy conditions are the Roll-Off system, most major motocross goggle brands manufacture these now which give you clearer vision for longer, many also come with a lens rain visor to prevent water seeping down in between your lenses.
Only change a goggle lens if your goggles and hands are completely clean, nothing scratches a lens quicker than dirt and friction! When removing a lens hold the bottom of the frame firmly and grab the top of the frame from the inside and lift the top of the frame away from the lens. Once you have the top section separated you can work your way around the frame until the lens is removed.
To replace the lens you will notice a series of notches around the edge of the lens, these are to be aligned with a series of locating posts inside the groove of the frame. Start with the nose piece and once this has been aligned you can then work your way around the goggles lining each locating post up with the lens and squeezing the frame firmly back onto the lens.

Before buying an optic, please read the following instructions first.
Remember to wash your hands thoroughly before removing lenses. Terry towels can leave fluff on your hands, so it's better to use paper towels. In this case, paper towels will be especially necessary, as they absorb moisture better.
Let's start removing the lenses :
Don't worry if the disc is "blinded" after removal. In order to straighten it, you need to drop liquid on it. In doing so, it should be carefully wiped. If all else fails, then in this case, you should lower the lens into a container with a solution. After a couple of hours, it can again acquire its original appearance.

In a seated position, it is best to remove lenses with your elbows on a hard surface. It will also be convenient if you take another small mirror for this. The room should have good lighting, but the light should not be too bright.
Lenses should be stored in the same container. It is also important to take them off and put them on from the same eye. Even if the diopters of the eyes are the same, then at the micro level the relief of the cornea of the eyes may differ. When the lenses are confused, their properties lose their quality.
If you have long nails, it will be difficult to remove the lenses, as the edge of the nail damages it and can harm the cornea of the eye. Here you need to be extremely careful and moisten your fingertips with a special solution before removing them.
Moisturizing gel and drops to help relieve dryness before removing lenses. Makeup should be removed after the lenses are removed. It is best to use hypoallergenic products such as mascara, shadows, eyeliners, etc.

These tips will help you remove your lenses correctly and store them properly. For repeated use, one-day lenses are not recommended, it is better to take new ones the next day. It is important to properly store and clean them, following all the instructions:
It is important to know how often to change them and keep an eye on the containers.
With each subsequent pack of solution, it is recommended to change the containers, draining the liquid after the lenses are removed from it. New disinfectant must be added before discs are removed. Using this method, the lenses will be in excellent condition.
So that no impurities remain on their surface, the corrective agents must be kept in solution for at least 4 hours. Thanks to constant disinfection, they will retain their original appearance for a long time.

Before you start removing lenses, experts advise you to follow the rules that you should familiarize yourself with in advance. Misuse and failure to follow the advice of ophthalmologists may adversely affect the condition of the eyes:
If there is pain, itching, photophobia, then you should contact a specialist, fulfilling all the prescribed requirements. By following all the advice of specialists, you will avoid serious complications, which often appear due to improper wearing of corrective means. Take care of your eyesight and be healthy!
Every aspect of motocross gear has received significant technical upgrades in recent years. Now it's time for the motorcycle glasses to get their due.
Introducing the new and innovative Vue from world leader Fox Racing . Visually, the glasses are simply stunning and are currently the most technologically sophisticated glasses on the market.
One of the strongest motocross riders Ken Roczen was directly involved in the development process. After countless hours of research, development and testing at Fox Racing turned their idea into reality. Peripheral vision is a priority, so Fox consulted with Ken in this area to ensure the widest possible field of view. These goggles fit very tightly to the rider's face, reducing frame-side distractions while also allowing for a deeper fit in the helmet. The main interesting feature of these goggles is the innovative frame design with the exclusive TruLock system for easy lens change.
1 - Curved polycarbonate lens for optical clarity and environmental protection
2 - 360 degree ventilation optimizes airflow for good airflow and reduces fogging
3 - Wide field of view lens for exceptional peripheral vision
4 - Quick-release mount for quick and easy lens replacement
5 - 45mm strap with protective silicone band for superior helmet grip
6 - Dual density frame system combines a soft TPR interior with a durable ABS/Nylon exterior.
The first thing we noticed when we got the goggles for testing was how strong and reliable they feel, mainly due to the injection molded lens and the two-piece frame. The comfort is exceptional, even though the 3-ply foam seems to be thinner than on regular glasses (probably at Ken's request). However, the softer inner layer conforms to any face shape or size. The lens itself is closer to your face than many other offerings on the market. This makes the frame of the goggles virtually invisible in your field of vision, which also greatly reduces distractions.
Without a doubt, the Vue is absolutely the easiest glasses to change lenses, thoroughly clean the lens and frame, because it comes apart into three parts. Changing lenses is a very easy process that only takes a few seconds. We also noticed that when replacing, fingerprints do not remain on the lens.
Ken Roczen - HRC Team rider : “Good visibility with glasses is very important to me. We went through several stages of samples in order to make the most effective and optimal goggles for riders. I'm really happy with the final product."
The impact resistance of an injection molded lens is much greater than that of a standard flat stamped lens, providing good protection and peace of mind for the rider.
