Can safety glasses be worn over regular glasses?
Yes, safety glasses can be worn over regular prescription glasses. To ensure the best possible compatibility and comfort, specially designed over-glasses are available. These have a larger size and a contoured shape designed to fit over your regular glasses without compromising safety or comfort.
When purchasing over-glasses safety glasses, you should pay attention to the following aspects:
- Comfort: The safety glasses should fit comfortably over your corrective eyewear and should neither pinch nor slip.
- Protection: They must meet the same safety standards as any other safety glasses, including impact resistance and splash protection.
- Lens quality: The lens should be clear and must not have any visible distortion or impairment effect on your vision.
- Fit: The safety glasses should fit completely over your regular glasses and must not have any safety gaps.
When making a purchase, always ensure that the safety glasses meet both your needs and can be worn comfortably over your regular glasses.
