unfog

Make glass clear

To unfog is to clear away fog or fogginess—literal or figurative.

You might unfog a bathroom mirror after a shower, or unfog your thinking after a confusing meeting.

The word implies restoring clarity to something that had become obscured: I need coffee to unfog my brain.
