You probably aren’t wearing proper glasses. If you go to a bike store they have the glasses for riding. There are clear ones and tinted ones.
These are some riding glasses:

If they are what you have than i don’t know.

Maybe you would like glacier glasses or ski goggles better.
Hi,
any old glasses (sunglasses, whatever) will do.
they keep the bugs out too
REgards,
Chas.
wear proper cycling sunglasses that fit your face and provide a light but effectiveprotection against flying stones etc. I like Tifossi Fototek (sp) because they are inexpensive, fit and work well
Look for sunglasses that “hugs” the contour of your face, like what the competition cyclists and speedskaters wear.
Those are contoured so that they block out the airflow around your eyes. They range from functional $20 generic ones to the $500 Oakley M-Frames with prescription lenses for those who need optical correction (myopia, astigmatism, etc.).
