    I also wear glasses all the time. I got tired of Crookies and decided to
    buy the old fashioned looped ear pieces, the kind you found on the old
    Granny Glasses. (Called cable temples). They hug my ears, keep them from
    siding down my nose. It would require one hell of a blow to dislodge them.
    Ask around at different optical shops. They may be hard to find, but
    worked well for me. Changed the temples from one pair to the next when I
    got new frames. Never lost a pair in fifteen years.

    Found these on the web. (I had to scour junk shops for mine.)

    Probably more if you look.

    As far as heavy rain, I go for the snorkeling face mask with Rain X. Once,
    during a particularly hard storm, I had some work to do on deck and used
    the snorkel to breath. Not to good. Wind was a problem. Tried to whip the
    snorkel out of my mouth,
