Anyone who needs bifocals to help them see small or fine details knows how difficult and stressful it can be to work in an environment where there are many potential hazards in terms of eye injuries. Without safety glasses or goggles, any small particles or pieces of debris can irritate or even damage the sensitive eyes. Prior to the invention of bifocal safety glasses, it was a very difficult and dangerous task to be continually switching from one pair of glasses and back. This posed a problem if an accident occurred and a person sustained eye injuries from forgetting to switch back, or because they needed specialized eyewear for a fine task that wasn’t designed for eye safety. In the end, that person would not only have to live with that injury but they would also be blamed for not being safe in the first place.
When wearing bifocal safety glasses, it’s possible to do the finer more precise work while staying protected from sparks, little pieces of wood or metal that fly up from cutting machines and even possible chemical splashes. What makes this possible is the integration of the small corrective lenses from bifocal glasses into regular safety glasses and goggles. They are still perfectly designed to help with close up vision while also providing light, impact resistant, scratch resistant and anti-fog lenses for the comfort needed for long working days.
Just like there are many different jobs with just as many potential hazards, there is also a wide range of bifocal safety eyewear to work with every need and personal taste or comfort. For anyone who may worry about having safety glasses slip off and don’t like the idea of having large goggles, there are special wrap around types of glasses that still have the light and fine feel but with a secure grip. There are also several types of tinted lenses available to help maximize vision in bright areas and protect the eyes from harmful UV rays. Choose from grey, yellow, blue or pink tints that are specifically designed to contrast certain environments and enhance the things that need to be seen.
With the range of bifocal safety glasses around, you can rest assured that you are always prepared for any potential dangers while being able to see clearly on the job in the workplace or in the comfort of your own home.
