NoCry Anti-Fog Scratch Resistant Adjustable Safety Glasses

If you’re working on a job or project that puts your eyes at risk, a good pair of safety glasses is a must, and these days, there are all sorts of different safety glasses to choose from. If UV rays or liquid splash is an issue you’ll face while working on a project, one pair of glasses might work better, while dust or debris could merit a completely different pair. Either way, you’ll need a pair of glasses that wraps around for total eye protection.

For healthcare workers, safety glasses have become an important part of the personal protective equipment worn in hazardous healthcare settings. The right pair of glasses can reduce exposure to contagious diseases and help keep medical professionals safe.

To achieve certification, safety glasses must go through a strict set of testing procedures, demonstrating that they protect against the most common hazards, such as blunt impact, radiation, splashes and droplets, dust and small dust particles. Once a pair of glasses meets those standards, you’ll often find details of its safety measures on its packaging.

For those purchasing safety glasses due to workplace requirements, it’s important to first check with your employer to find out what’s required. You’ll then be able to narrow it down to the eyewear that’s best for the hazards you face.

• If you plan to wear your glasses with a mask, anti-fog properties sound great, but not all glasses actually deliver on these claims. Be sure to read reviews from other customers to see if the glasses truly won’t fog, especially if you’re working in an environment where visibility is a safety issue.
• Safety glasses can slip down your nose, especially if you start perspiring while you’re working. Look for a pair that’s designed to stay in place.
• If you have to wear your glasses for hours at a time, find a pair that’s lightweight to ensure you stay comfortable.
• For prescription glasses-wearers, there are safety glasses designed to fit over standard glass frames.
• Some safety glasses have adjustable temples, which can come in handy for customizing the fit.
• Safety glasses come in a variety of styles. Many feature clear frames with clear lenses, but there are some that are built to emulate the design of standard eyeglasses. If you opt for this design, make sure it includes some type of wraparound protection.
• A pair of glasses doesn’t have to feature dark lenses to protect against UV radiation. There are plenty of pairs that are clear and still have top-quality UV protection.
