A head-worn air pump is provided which directs a stream of air to the goggles between the user and the transparent/translucent surface. The air pump can be attached to the rear portion of the goggle strap, or to an auxiliary or supplemental strap, so as to be behind the user and out of the line of sight of the user. One or more flexible tubes or hoses can be attached to a manifold or plenum receiving air under pressure from the pump, and lead from the rear of the head to one or both sides of the goggles. A rechargeable battery can power the air pump, and the pump can be switched on and off by a button on the pump housing, even by a user wearing gloves or hand coverings. The battery can be recharged by a conventional USB connection. The air can be supplied either at ambient temperature or refrigerated and/or heated, as desired in particular applications.
