Hazards at work put our sight at risk every day and sadly many eye injuries occur because vital protective eyewear is not always worn when needed.

Safety spectacles for work environments are available to protect your eyes from chemicals, heat, impact etc. The frame and lens materials can be individually chosen to suit different working conditions.

Many DIY and hardware stores, catalogues and websites sell shields that can easily be fitted over your normal glasses. These are satisfactory but if you work with tools on a regular basis it may be more beneficial to buy a fitted pair of safety glasses.

Eye injuries are the easiest of injuries to avoid and the simple answer is to wear safety glasses. All you need to do to prevent eye injuries is to keep them covered. No matter what situation you are in, if protecting your eyes is involved, there will be an eye protection product available.

As an independent practice we can source them for you or dispense and fit them from your employers prefered supplier.
