When selecting eyewear, keep these safety factors in mind
and be sure to discuss any
safety needs with your dispenser or doctor:
The type and style of the spectacle frame is an important
factor in determining how much protection your eyeglasses will
provide. Many frames are designed for appearance - not for protection.
While federal law requires all lenses to meet a standard of
impact resistance, lenses used for dress eyewear are not required
to meet as rigorous an impact resistance standard as lenses used
in industrial or sports spectacles. Of all the materials that
lenses can be made from, polycarbonate is the most impact resistant.
No lenses are unbreakable or shatterproof. They can break
into sharp pieces that can cause serious injury to the eye, or
blindness. Even if the lenses do not break, the frame can break
or distort and result in serious eye injury.
The continued impact resistance of your lenses depends on
how well you protect them from physical shocks and abuse. For
your own protection and visual comfort, scratched or pitted lenses
should be replaced immediately.
If your occupational or recreational activities expose you
to severe risk of flying objects or physical impacts, eye safety
may require special safety spectacles with safety lenses, side
shields, goggles and/or a full face shield.
