Safety Glasses & Eye Protection

Safety Glasses & Eye Protection

Eye protection guards against flying debris, dust and splashes on the job, at the range and on a medical call. This category holds a wide range of Portwest safety glasses, from wraparound and ultra light frames to bifocal safety readers and glasses with a foam gasket, along with anti-fog safety goggles for splash protection.

How to choose

  • Standard: For work use, look for ANSI Z87.1 marking on the frame and lens, which shows the eyewear was made to that impact standard.
  • Style: Wraparound frames give side coverage. Goggles and gasketed glasses seal better against dust and splashes.
  • Lens: Clear lenses suit indoor and night work. Anti-fog helps when moving between temperatures or wearing a mask.
  • Vision: Bifocal safety readers add magnification for close-up tasks without swapping glasses.

Safety Glasses FAQ

Can I wear safety glasses over prescription glasses?

Regular safety glasses are not made to fit over prescription frames. Goggles or over-the-glasses styles are the usual options.

Are goggles better than safety glasses?

Goggles seal around the eyes, so they are better for liquid splashes and fine dust. Safety glasses are lighter and fine for general impact protection.

Is there a manufacturer warranty?
