Safety Glasses Over Prescription Frames: 3 Paths
Episode 3654
Published 1 week ago
Description
If you wear prescription glasses and do any kind of DIY work — drilling, engraving, anything involving high-velocity particles — your daily frames won't protect you. This episode walks through three actual solutions: over-the-glasses goggles, prescription safety glasses, and contacts plus standard safety eyewear. We cover what the ANSI Z87.1 and EN 166 standards actually mean, why "meets standards" is weasel language, and what you should expect to pay for something that actually works.
