FAQs

What does EN166 1F AS certification mean?

EN166 is the European standard for eye protection. '1F' indicates high-speed particle impact resistance (up to 45 m/s), and 'AS' signifies anti-scratch coating.

Can I wear these over my prescription glasses?

These spectacles are designed as standalone safety eyewear and may not fit comfortably or securely over most prescription glasses. Over-the-glass (OTG) safety eyewear is recommended for users who need to wear glasses underneath.

How do I clean the smoke lens?

Use a soft, lint-free cloth, slightly dampened with water. Mild soap can be used if necessary, followed by rinsing and drying with the cloth. Avoid solvents or abrasive cleaners.

Are these suitable for welding?

No, these spectacles are not designed for welding. Welding requires specialized welding helmets or goggles with appropriate shade lenses to protect against intense UV and infrared radiation.

What is the difference between the clear and smoke lens options?

The clear lens provides maximum light transmission and is suitable for general use and low-light conditions. The smoke lens reduces glare and is best suited for bright light conditions, both indoors and outdoors.

How long is the free spectacle cord?

The length of the free spectacle cord is not specified, but it is designed to keep the spectacles secure around the neck when not in use.

What material are the lenses made of?

The lenses are made of polycarbonate.

Troubleshooting

Lenses fogging up during use.

Ensure the spectacles are properly fitted. In humid conditions, consider using an anti-fog spray specifically designed for safety eyewear. Ensure good ventilation in the work area if possible.

Spectacles feel uncomfortable after extended wear.

While designed for comfort, individual fit can vary. Ensure the spectacles are sitting correctly on your nose and behind your ears. If discomfort persists, consider if a different style of safety eyewear might be more suitable.

Vision appears distorted.

Clean the lenses thoroughly with a soft cloth. If the distortion persists and the spectacles are not damaged, they may not meet your specific visual needs. Check if the product is rated for the required optical quality for your task.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: These spectacles are designed to be worn by most individuals. The smoke lens option is suitable for bright light conditions. They are certified to EN166 1F AS standards, ensuring compatibility with common workplace safety requirements.

Care: To maintain optical clarity and protective qualities:

  1. Clean the lenses regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive materials or harsh chemicals, which can scratch or damage the lens coating.
  2. Store the spectacles in a clean, dry place, preferably in a protective case or pouch when not in use.
  3. Inspect the spectacles periodically for any signs of damage, such as cracks or deep scratches, and replace if compromised.
