FAQs

Are these glasses suitable for all types of work?

These glasses offer general eye protection for many tasks like construction and workshops. They may not be sufficient for environments with extreme hazards like chemical splashes or high-velocity impacts. Always assess the specific risks of your work environment.

What material are the lenses and frame made of?

Both the lenses and the frame are constructed from durable Polycarbonate (PC) material, known for its impact resistance.

How do I clean the safety glasses?

Gently clean the lenses with a soft, damp microfiber cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or materials that could scratch the polycarbonate.

Will these glasses fit comfortably over prescription glasses?

These safety glasses are designed as standalone protective eyewear and are not specifically built as over-the-glasses (OTG) safety glasses. Fit over prescription eyewear may vary and is not guaranteed.

What is the benefit of the flexible rubber temple ends?

The flexible rubber temple ends are designed to provide a more secure and comfortable fit. They adapt to the wearer's head shape and reduce pressure points, especially during prolonged use.

How should I store my safety glasses when not in use?

It is recommended to store your safety glasses in a protective case or a clean, dry environment to prevent scratches on the lenses and damage to the frame.

Troubleshooting

Glasses feel loose

Ensure the flexible temple ends are positioned correctly and providing a snug fit. If they continue to slip, consider if a different model might be more suitable for your head shape.

Lens fogging during use

The ventilated design helps, but for very humid or strenuous conditions, ensure the glasses are clean. Consider a specialized anti-fog solution if fogging is persistent and impacts vision.

Scratches on the lens

Clean the lenses gently with a soft, damp microfiber cloth. If scratches are deep, they may require replacement of the glasses to ensure clear vision and proper protection.
