Product Description

From the Manufacturer

An estimated 2.4 million eye injuries occur annually in the U.S.--And more than 1 million of these occur at home. Up to 90% of these could be prevented through the use of protective eyewear, according to Prevent Blindness America. These unique safety glasses, from MSA Safety Works, the world leader in safety products, feature designer sunglasses styling with high impact polycarbonate lenses to produce safety glasses that are both sleek in style and protective. The full blue mirrored lens on these safety glasses has a UV400 additive, so that they block 99.999% of harmful UV radiation. Excessive sunlight (which contains UV radiation) has been associated with cataracts that can lead to partial or total blindness. The lens also has a hard-coat protective coating to help reduce scratches. The dark gray tinted lenses on these glasses help to reduce the strain on the eyes associated with exposure to the sun. The ratcheted angle-adjustable temples allow the lens to be positioned up or down for optimum user comfort. The temples are adjustable in and out so that they can be customized to the users head size. The glasses and ear plugs can be stored in the reclosable plastic clamshell for protection when not in use.

My husband loves these glasses and was so happy to find them again after Home Depot stopped carrying similar glasses. He likes his sunglasses dark, and these fit the bill. They fit well, cover your whole eye area, and stay on great, but they do seem to scratch easily so I only gave them 4 stars.

I LOVE these glasses. They fit great cuz I can adjust them every way possible. The darkness is perfect! I can drive directly into the sun in the morning or evening and not even squint. I originally bought a pair a few years ago at Home Depot and took care of them like gold. Lost them in Mexico, and wouldn't you know it, Home Depot didn't carry them anymore. Couldn't find the equivalant so I looked and looked until I found them here, even called MSA directly but they would sell them direct to me. Only thing I dont like is they scratch somewhat easy even though the description says they dont, and when you lift your glasses and put them on the top of your head, they slip off real easy. But heck, it thats the only problem, then there's not much of a problem.

These are good glasses. I have light blue eyes and here in Miami the sun is killer. The only thing is that the "coating" scratches and then you wind up with a line thru the lens. In being a union electrician, working outside @ the airport on the white rock during the summer these glasses are darker than any safety glasses I have tried before. All I would like to know is what is the actual number of the darkness. I tried welding/cutting glasses @ +6 dark but they are green and everything looks green and it blocks out the taillights of the car ahead of you (blocks all red light waves). So not that good to use as everyday sunglasses.
