Prescription Safety Glasses

Prescription safety glasses are used for safety purposes when working in an environment where vision clarity and eye safety might be a concern.

The glasses protect the eyes against flying objects or particles that might endanger the eye. Not only do prescription safety glasses protect eyes from possible injuries, but they also make sure the wearer has maximum visual clarity while working in a potentially hazardous environment.

At For Eyes, you will find high-quality safety glasses constructed out of transparent, impact-resistant materials. For maximum protection and durability, they feature a certified design that covers a substantial portion of the eyes, protecting the wearer from dangerous particles, spills, and high-impact flying items.

Examples of work that necessitates the use of safety glasses:

  • Working on mining industry sites

  • Working on construction sites

  • Conducting research in laboratories

  • Welding jobs

  • Garage workshops and mechanical projects

  • Agriculture and fisheries

  • Factories and similar industrial settings

  • Healthcare jobs like medical lab work, surgery, and nursing


Choosing the Right Prescription Safety Glasses

While every person is different and has their own sense of style, one factor to consider before making any selections is the type of work you perform on a daily basis.

If you’ll be working outdoors, the frames should be able to handle the bumps and bangs of everyday life. If your job involves a lot of close indoor inspections, look for frames that have contrast to reduce artificial light glare. For example, prescription safety glasses for nurses may need additional protection such as anti-fogging or lens tinting. 

The right prescription safety glasses are tailored to your vision acuity needs, style, and comfort preferences. Whether you’re looking for impact-resistant frames that are suited for outdoor use or frames that protect from harmful substances, you’ll have options that cater to your work environment.


Are prescription and safety eyewear the same?

Generally, prescription glasses and safety glasses aren't the same things, which is why prescription safety glasses are necessary. The main difference comes from the types of materials used to make lenses. Prescription eyewear corrects vision, while safety glasses resist or protect against various hazards.
