FAQs

What is the PLATINUM coating?

The PLATINUM coating is a permanent, dual-sided application that provides exceptional resistance to scratches (1.4 cd/m²) and aggressive chemicals, while also slowing the onset of fogging. It ensures maximum safety and clarity in demanding conditions.

Can I wear these over my prescription glasses?

The Bolle Safety Cobra Psi Platinum glasses are designed for a close, wrap-around fit. While some users may find they can fit smaller prescription frames underneath, it is not guaranteed and may compromise comfort or the protective seal. For prescription needs, consider dedicated prescription safety glasses.

How do I clean the lenses without damaging the coatings?

Gently rinse with water, then dry with a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth. For tougher smudges or to refresh anti-fog properties, use a lens cleaner specifically formulated for coated lenses. Avoid abrasive materials and household cleaners.

What does '180° visual field' mean in practical terms?

It means the glasses offer a nearly complete peripheral view, allowing you to see almost everything in front and to the sides without moving your head. This significantly reduces blind spots and enhances awareness of your surroundings.

Are these glasses suitable for all types of work environments?

They are highly versatile and ideal for construction, laboratories, manufacturing, and any environment requiring protection from impacts, dust, splashes, and UV radiation, especially where a wide field of vision is beneficial. For extremely bright sunlight, a tinted version might be preferred.

What is the UVA/UVB protection rating?

The glasses provide 99.9% protection against both UVA and UVB ultraviolet radiation, safeguarding your eyes from sun damage.

How long does the anti-fog and anti-scratch resistance last?

The PLATINUM coating is described as permanent, offering long-lasting resistance to fogging and scratches under normal use and proper care. However, extreme abuse or improper cleaning can degrade its performance over time.

Troubleshooting

Glasses fog up excessively.

Ensure the anti-fog coating is not compromised. Clean the lenses with a dedicated anti-fog lens cleaner. Verify the glasses are sitting correctly on the face to allow for minimal air circulation behind the lens.

Vision is consistently blurry or scratched.

Clean the lenses thoroughly with a microfiber cloth and appropriate lens cleaner. If scratches are deep and persistent, the lenses may need replacement, or the glasses may need to be retired if not designed for replaceable lenses.

Glasses slip down the nose.

Ensure the non-slip nose bridge is clean. If the fit is still loose, check if the glasses are the correct size or consider if they are compatible with your facial structure.

Discomfort during extended wear.

Ensure the glasses are properly adjusted. Check for pressure points on the nose or temples. If discomfort persists, the specific design might not be suitable for your face shape, and trying a different model could be beneficial.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional 180° field of vision for superior awareness.
  • Comfortable and secure fit with a non-slip nose bridge.
  • Durable PLATINUM coating provides excellent anti-fog and anti-scratch performance.
  • High level of protection against UVA/UVB rays and chemicals.
  • Lightweight design suitable for extended wear.

Cons

  • Wide field of view may require a slight adjustment period for some users.
  • Premium coatings might necessitate specific cleaning protocols.
  • May not be compatible with all prescription eyewear worn underneath.
  • While scratch-resistant, extreme impacts can still damage lenses.
  • Clear lenses are not ideal for extremely bright, glinting conditions without additional tinting.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

The Bolle Safety Cobra Psi Platinum Safety Glasses are designed for immediate use. Simply remove them from the packaging and adjust the fit if necessary. The wrap-around design and non-slip nose bridge typically provide a secure fit without further adjustment.

Compatibility:

These glasses are designed to be worn as standalone eye protection. While they offer a panoramic view, fitting prescription glasses underneath may be difficult or compromise the seal and comfort due to their close-fitting design. For individuals requiring prescription eyewear, consider prescription safety glasses or compatible over-the-glasses (OTG) models if available.

Care:

To maintain the integrity of the lenses and coatings:

  1. Cleaning: Gently rinse the lenses with clean water to remove loose particles. Use a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth to dry and polish. Avoid abrasive materials or paper towels, which can damage the coatings.
  2. Anti-Fog/Anti-Scratch: For stubborn smudges or to refresh the anti-fog properties, use a lens cleaning solution specifically designed for coated lenses. Avoid using solvents or harsh detergents.
  3. Storage: Store the glasses in a protective case when not in use to prevent scratches and damage to the coatings.
