rain x or a carnuba wax (make sure there is no polish grit/compound in it (most car waxes have that stuff in it and it'll kill glasses) layer will help it run off faster, again __only__ for 'real real' glass , and it can still mess up your surface coating (anti reflex or so)
as always ask optician :-/ my glasses were safe for it 4 years in they haven't shown wear or damage, but..ask ask ask

then again for tropical downpours (what i have to deal with) ..i some times take the glasses off, squint eyes, pedal and scream since i can't see anyway and hope for the best (i think it's the berserker in me) :-p
