Our mission is to enable customers to comply with federal regulations most efficiently by offering a wide selection of the most popular safety products at competitive prices.  The governing body of safety equipment, giving a extensive system of guidelines designed to help keep our citizens safe; is known as OHSA, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration.

The American Optometric Association is working to educate both employers and employees about how to avoid digital eye strain in the workplace. To help alleviate digital eye strain, follow the 20-20-20 rule; take a 20-second break to view something 20 feet away every 20 minutes.
Occupations with a high risk for eye injuries include:
  • construction
  • manufacturing
  • mining

How can I protect my eyes from injury?

UVEX-hydroshield-anti-fog-eye-protection
UVEX Hydroshield Starting at $5.82 ea.
Four things you can do:
  1. Know the eye safety dangers at your work.
  2. Eliminate hazards before starting work by using machine guards, work screens or other engineering controls.
  3. Use proper eye protection.
  4. Keep your safety eyewear in good condition and have it replaced if it becomes damaged.

What are some potential eye hazards from work?

  • Projectiles (dust, concrete, metal, wood and other particles)
  • Chemicals (splashes and fumes)
  • Radiation (especially visible light, ultraviolet radiation, heat or infrared radiation, and lasers)
  • Bloodborne pathogens (hepatitis or HIV) from blood and body fluids
The type of safety eye protection you should wear depends on the hazards in your workplace:
  • If you are working in an area that has particles, flying objects or dust, you must at least wear safety glasses with side protection (side shields).
  • If you are working with chemicals, you must wear goggles.
  • If you are working near hazardous radiation (welding, lasers or fiber optics) you must use special-purpose safety glasses, goggles, face shields or helmets designed for that task.

3M Fectoggle™ Starting at $10.90 ea.
Crews-glasses-mcr-safety-reaper-goggles
Crews Glasses (an MCR safety brand) Starting at $12.24 ea.
Although safety glasses may look like normal dress eyewear, they are designed to provide significantly more eye protection. The lenses and frames are much stronger than regular eyeglasses. Safety glasses must meet standards of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). Look for the Z87 mark on the lens or frame.

Safety glasses provide eye protection for general working conditions where there may be dust, chips or flying particles. Side shields and wraparound-style safety glasses can provide additional side protection. 

Safety lenses are available in plastic, polycarbonate and Trivex™ materials. While all four types must meet or exceed the minimum requirements for protecting your eyes, polycarbonate lenses provide the highest level of protection from impact.
