Those that use riding glasses, any issue with fogging?

This thread is good timing. Did a night ride last night and had to fish a tiny fragment of glass out of my eyelid this morning. Needless to say my eye is a bloodshot mess, but clearing up. I want to wear riding glasses but haven't found a pair that don't fog up. I'm 190 pounds so when in full cardio mode needless to say I'm steaming.

They work really well to prevent fogging.

I think I must be an outlier, I've had a set of Shore goggles since last July and had no real issues with scratches whatsoever and the anti-fog has been excellent. They also fit my small face without crushing the bridge of my nose down, so I haven't had to cut out a chunk of foam. I can definitely see that the lenses would be less resistant to the fine scratching that can happen, but I got them for $40 and they've been excellent. 

I'm also testing out a Parker model goggle from Melon Optics and it's proving to be excellent as well, high quality makesmanship and customization features too.
