Who wears safety glasses all day? Which ones...
do you prefer?
It’s been a long time coming but no longer will we be allowed to work “glass free.” This concerns me because most cheap safety glasses give me a headache after a short while. I believe they aren’t optically correct. My eyes have always been my strong point. Perfect vision for more than five decades. No sunglasses ever and I’ve mostly worked outside. Yes, I put them on when grinding, welding or the like but that is not long. Maybe I should get some zero strength prescription safety glasses?

You might check with some instructors at vocational classes (machinist, welding, autobody, etc.) which types they have opinions on.

I liked the UVEX Tomcat when worked in a machine shop. Lot of other guys started wearing them.

I do - they supply us with several different types. I like the 3M ultra lightweight wraparound glasses. They provide good eye protection, good peripheral vision and are cheap enough to toss them after a few days.

Actually, the sunglasses I prefer are rated. But they are also bi-focal.
