Just remember, when running outside, if you fog up your glasses, they won't just unfog on their own. Bad when running in the dark.
I use Nordic Grip for winter snow and ice. I can run over the occasional dry patch without them being a bother but mostly you need to be on snow or ice with them. I think Strides has these.

My glasses don't fog as long as my mouth isn't covered in any way by a balaclava or a pull-up. As soon as you cover your mouth and hot air exhale is being directed upward toward your glasses, you're toast. In that case, I'll run without glasses and hope I don't go straight into a tree or something.
