About this category
Safety glasses and safety goggles do not work the same way and do not protect against the same hazards, so precise selection is part of the hazard assessment. Safety glasses stop frontal and side impact from flying particles but are not sealed and do not stop chemical splash or vapors. Goggles seal around the eye and are used in environments with chemical splash or fine dust. Face shields cover the entire face and are never used alone; they go over a pair of safety glasses. Welding shields carry filters with defined shade numbers (Shade 8-13) matched to the welding process and current. Prescription safety eyewear combines vision correction with impact resistance for workers who need corrective lenses. Laser safety eyewear is rated by wavelength and Optical Density (OD) and is not interchangeable across laser types and wavelengths. Protective lenses differ in impact rating (basic or high) and treatments such as anti-scratch, anti-fog, and UV filtration. Specifications follow ANSI Z87.1 or EN 166, and fit varies by face shape and compatibility with other PPE.
