FAQs
Are the ESS ICE Tactical Shooting Goggles ANSI Z87.1 compliant?
Yes, the ESS ICE Tactical Shooting Goggles are designed to meet or exceed U.S. military ballistic impact resistance requirements and ANSI Z87.1 standards for eye protection.
How do I clean the lenses without damaging them?
Use a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth and a mild lens cleaner or just water. Avoid paper towels or abrasive materials which can cause scratches.
Can I wear these over my prescription glasses?
The ESS ICE Tactical Shooting Goggles are generally designed to be worn as a standalone protective eyewear. While some users might find them compatible with smaller frames, they are not specifically designed as over-prescription eyewear. Consider ESS prescription inserts if available for your model.
What is the best way to store my ESS ICE Tactical Shooting Goggles?
Always store your goggles in their provided protective case when not in use to prevent scratches and damage to the lenses and frame.
How do I swap the lenses?
The lens swapping process typically involves carefully disengaging the temple arms from the lens frame. Refer to the specific instruction manual that came with your goggles for the exact procedure for your model.
Are these goggles suitable for all weather conditions?
The interchangeable lenses allow adaptation to various light conditions. However, like most ballistic eyewear, intense fogging can occur in very humid or cold environments if not properly managed or if ventilation is limited.
What kind of warranty does ESS offer on these goggles?
ESS typically offers a limited warranty against manufacturing defects. Please refer to the warranty documentation included with your product or visit the ESS website for the most current warranty information.
Troubleshooting
Lenses fogging up excessively
Ensure lenses are clean and free from debris. Consider purchasing an anti-fog solution or wipe. Ensure proper ventilation if the goggles feel too sealed.
Difficulty changing lenses
Consult the product manual for the correct lens-swapping procedure. Ensure you are applying gentle, correct pressure to the designated release points.
Goggles feel uncomfortable during extended wear
Adjust the temple arms for a better fit. Ensure the goggles are not overtightened. Consider if the fit is suitable for your head shape; some users may benefit from alternative ESS models.
Scratches appearing on lenses
Avoid placing lenses on rough surfaces. Always store in a protective case. Clean gently with a soft cloth. Minor scratches may not significantly impair vision but deeper ones may require lens replacement.
