FAQs

Are these safety glasses suitable for wearing over prescription glasses?

No, the SAS Safety VX9 Safety Glasses are designed as a standalone protective eyewear and are not intended to be worn over prescription glasses.

What does '99.9% UV protection' mean?

It means the lenses block 99.9% of harmful ultraviolet (UVA and UVB) radiation from the sun, helping to protect your eyes from sun damage.

How should I clean the anti-fog and scratch-resistant coatings?

Clean the lenses with a soft, lint-free cloth or a lens-specific cleaning solution. Avoid abrasive materials or paper towels, which can damage the coatings.

What kind of impacts can these glasses withstand?

They are made with high-impact polycarbonate lenses, designed to meet severe safety standards and protect against flying debris and impacts common in many industrial and workshop environments.

Can I use these glasses for protection against chemical splashes?

While they offer general protection, these glasses are primarily designed for impact and UV protection. For significant chemical splash hazards, specialized chemical goggles may be more appropriate.

Do these glasses have adjustable temples?

The VX9 Safety Glasses feature a sporty wrap-around frame with a non-slip nose piece and temples for a secure fit, but they do not have adjustable temple arms.

What is the weight of these safety glasses?

The SAS Safety VX9 Safety Glasses weigh approximately 0.1 lbs, making them lightweight for comfortable extended wear.

Troubleshooting

Lenses fog up quickly.

Ensure the anti-fog coating is intact. Clean lenses gently with a microfiber cloth. If the coating is compromised, consider replacing the glasses. Ensure proper ventilation around the frame.

Glasses slip down the nose.

Adjust the nose piece if possible, or ensure the temples are resting correctly on your ears. For a more permanent solution, consider non-slip grip enhancers designed for eyewear.

Scratches on the lenses impair vision.

Clean the lenses first to rule out dirt. If scratches are present and significant, the lenses may need to be replaced. As these are typically integrated units, replacing the entire pair of glasses is often necessary.

Frame feels too tight or uncomfortable.

While adjustability is limited, ensure you are wearing them correctly. The wrap-around design aims for a universal fit, but individual facial structures vary. Check for any debris or damage that might be causing discomfort.
