How to choose

  • Protection: For work and range use, look for ANSI Z87.1 marking on safety eyewear. Ballistic ratings are listed in the product name when a frame has one.
  • Lens tint: Clear lenses suit indoor and night use. Gray or smoke lenses cut glare in bright sun.
  • Fit: Wraparound frames block wind and debris from the side. Foam gaskets seal out dust.
  • Prescription: If you wear glasses, choose OTG (over-the-glasses) goggles or bifocal safety readers.
