Best Polarized Safety Glasses at Best Price Glasses
Polarized safety glasses have become very popular with those who spend time under the bright sun. Whether your activity is construction, fishing, biking, running, boating, motorcycling, driving, or any combination of these, you should consider the move to polarized safety glasses.
The key to their popularity is a special polarized lens filter that reduces glare without sacrificing clarity, performance or durability. This polarized filter significantly reduces eye stress and fatigue caused by excessive glare from surfaces that commonly reflect bright sunlight, such as water, ice, glass or paint from other automobiles. For most, once they've worn a pair of polarized safety glasses or sunglasses, they never go back to standard lenses. All Polarized Safety Glasses are ANSI Z87.1-2015 certified with the added benefit of 99.9% UV protection.
Prescription Polarized Safety Sunglasses Online
Prescription polarized safety sunglasses are a great investment for anybody working outdoors during bright, sunny days, or who needs to drive and doesn't feel like carrying around prescription sunglasses to switch with their safety glasses.
Prescription polarized safety sunglasses are available with full ANSI Z87 ratings as prescription safety glasses for safe use on job sites, but with the bonus of glare protection and sun protection that polarized lenses have to offer.
Polarized lenses help reduce glare and haze by filtering the light that comes to your eyes. In a nutshell, polarization filters scattered light by only allowing certain types of light to get to your eyes, The result is a reduction in reflected light (such as sunlight reflected off of cars, road surfaces, snow, and water) that gets to your eyes, making your vision clearer and your eyes less strained.
Prescription Polarized Safety Sunglasses FAQs
What Are Polarized Lenses?
Polarized lenses cut out glare. When the sun emits light, it's a vertical wavelength. This wavelength then hits shiny, reflective objects such as cars, snow, or water, and rebounds at a horizontal wavelength to cause glare. Polarized glasses have a filter that blocks this horizontal wavelength. This feature is great for everyday sunglasses or if you spend a lot of time on the water, and it can work for safety glasses too!
Do I Need Polarized Safety Glasses?
While polarized lenses block glare from the sun, polarization may also affect depth perception. However, not everyone reacts to polarized lenses the same way, so it may or may not be an issue for you.
Getting polarized safety sunglasses is a matter of personal preference as well as the type of work you do. If you're someone who works in bright sunlight, a polarized lens may save you from squinting and eye fatigue.
Likewise, if you deal with a lot of shiny metal, polarized glasses are a good thing to have. One caveat, though: You can't get polarized lenses with all lens tints. For example, you can't get a clear lens polarized, or polarized Transitions lenses.
Can I Get Polarized Prescription Safety Glasses?
Yes! Polarization is applied as a filter on the lens, so you can get it with prescription lenses.
When should workers use polarized safety glasses?
Polarized safety glasses (including safety sunglasses) should be worn whenever there is a bright light that causes glare, no matter whether it's natural or artificial. Some workers may only need them during extremely sunny days or while carrying out certain tasks. For others, though, this might mean wearing the glasses for their entire shift. For this reason (and to encourage daily compliance) it's important to ensure that the polarized glasses you select for your workers are as sleek and comfortable as possible.
The best way to determine when your workers require polarized safety glasses is to carry out a hazard assessment. Observe, ask questions, and figure out if and when each worker's vision is being impaired by glares. If glare is an issue in your workplace, polarized glasses should be a part of your workers' safety equipment.
What Are Polarized Safety Glasses?
Most people know the term ‘polarized' in relation to sunglasses. The most common use of polarized sunglasses is for driving where, as with operators of heavy machinery, a few seconds of sight loss could prove exceptionally dangerous. Polarized safety glasses use the same technique on the lenses but it is applied to glasses that are tested and rated to the highest safety standards for the industry.
What Activities Require Polarized Safety Glasses?
Water sports - any sport taking place on the water is going to require eye protection. Glare occurs most commonly from the surface of the water. Remember, we're talking about safety glasses, not just sunglasses, so protecting eyes from hazards such as saltwater spray and impact is also very important.
Snow sports - any winter sport involving snow brings a risk of glare. The impact and scratch resistance are also very handy in these types of sports.
Cycling - Glare from standing pools of water, vehicles and other reflective surfaces present additional dangers to already vulnerable cyclists. Observation is a rider's best defence on the road so eye protection is crucial. Wind, rain, sweat, road grit and harmful UV light are all hazards cyclists have to manage and polarized safety glasses protect against them all
Motoring - controlling the speed and direction of a vehicle on or off-road is a big responsibility. It is not only the safety of yourself and the people on board you are accountable for, you owe a duty of care to those around you too. Clear, unobstructed vision is crucial to your performance.
Outdoor industrial processes - operating on a worksite presents perhaps the widest range of eye hazards. Everything from sharp objects to chemical powders, blunt force hazards to abrasive grit and of course UV damage and glare if working outside
