I have never swam open water ,but my boss just started. Her complaint is how do you keep your goggles from becoming fog over? I swim in a pool so I have no idea,does the anti fog sprays work?

When the goggles are brand new, there usually are no problems with fogging, I just rinse them out with sea water before wearing. After swimming, I simply rinse them out with fresh water and repeat the sea water rinse the next time I go swimming. However, after about two weeks there is some sort of build up and so I wash them out with dish washing (foam) detergent to remove the scum. Around the 3rd or 4th week, the antifog material starts to wear out and fogs up the lenses. When this happens, I have to spend an hour or so rubbing the antifog coating off the lenses with a clean soft cloth and detergent. After rubbing all this antifog stuff off, rub baby shampoo on the inside lenses and rinse off with fresh water before wearing.
