JORESTECH Eyewear Protective Safety Glasses, Polycarbonate Impact Resistant Lens Pack of 12 (Clear)

I'd have preferred larger lenses and hence larger side shields, but as far as safety standards go, these are the best rated one can get. My last set was a pair of laboratory safety glasses from my undergrad days as a college chemistry major, 32 years ago. Those got dirty, and I ran them through the dishwasher. Unheated dry cycle, top shelf and the old ones still partly melted. They came out very clean, but ruined. I figure this new 12-pack will last me quite a long time. I'm near-sighted, and when my mother and I trim trees in her neighborhood, I prefer these when dealing with whippy branches instead of corrective lenses. I also have a machine shop in my basement, so a set of these went at every tool station. They ones I received are not very blurry, at least not enough to be any sort of nuisance. Since nobody makes replacement eyeballs, these are a great deal for the price. The 12-pack allows one set for my garage, one for the metal-cutting bandsaw, one for my mill-drill-lathe, one for my mother's garage, a few giveaways to friends, and a jar of extras in reserve. This means I'll always have a set ready to hand. I have also taken to wearing my leather arc-welding jacket when machining parts, after an accident which had a broken-off drill bit bounce off my chest very hard. No blood was drawn, but I saw where this could potentially lead. Note: do not run safety glasses through your dishwasher. At least the old set had the advantage of having lasted 32 years. In addition to more regular shop activities, plus Nerf wars and paintball fights mentioned in the comments section, these would likely be pretty good for raquetball. Nobody really wants a ball bouncing off a wall at high speed in their eye. At about a dollar a pair, these are too inexpensive not to use. The individual - and reusable - plastic wrappings will also help keep them from becoming dusty during periods of disuse. Of course one could always use Ziploc freezer bags for an even more complete covering. I have a big head, and these fit me well anyway. The limbs expand slightly, and still reach my ears.

These glasses are $1 a pair. No they are not crystal clear or scratch-proof. But they work and are comfortable. I am a woodworker and for years I used fancier glasses that cost $8-15 a pair. These are the kind that have metal temples (bows) and stick out from the sides of the face a bit. I do really like those, but they are expensive, they do not work with earmuffs, and eventually the little screws that hold the temples on get loose and fall out. Or the temples somehow get bent. When I switched from earplugs to earmuffs, I needed glasses that would fit under the earmuffs. These work great. I've had them for over a year, and I'm still using the first pair. They are not quite as clear as high-end glasses, but definitely clear enough for running a saw.

Kids are shooting air rifle and needed safety glasses. These are great for those of us that do not wear glasses. My son can not wear them over his glasses. They do fog a bit but so far this hasn't been too much of a problem. We just have to not put them too close to our faces. Nice clear lenses and so far no issues even with my 8 year old using them.

My husband is a mechanic, he uses these safety glasses daily in his shop. They are great for the price. If you treat them well they are scratch resistant, but he just tosses them down on the ground or the work bench. He also looses them easily because he is careless. I buy the 12 pack and then scatter them around the shop. It usually lasts about a year and then I buy a new pack. Fit his face well, comfortable and for the most part do not fog up.

With an active 12-year old boy, I'm always reaching for protective glasses. Whether it be for fishing, fireworks, shooting, or nerf rival wars (ugh), it's nice to have a personal arsenal of protective glasses to ensure eyeball safety. These are good quality, have clear clarity, and come individually wrapped, which is great and prevents scratching during storage . The price was good and the quantity allows me to have some at hand in almost every unpredictable situation...which is often when boys are involved.

These are great for working in the yard. I also use them to remind myself and children to not touch our eyes amongst all the virus concerns. We don't wear glasses, but allergy season is upon us. It's too easy for hands to automatically respond to itchy eyes, an action that could lead to greater issues due to the virus. Surprisingly, these are made in such a way that my husband ( 6"2, 220lbs) and my 7 year old ( average size) can wear them comfortably. The pack means that we can keep a pair in the car and one at home for each of us. They are impact resistant, as I dropped a pair on my hard floors, and I didn't see a scratch. The more expensive ones that I was replacing weren't as sturdy. The only thing to make it better is if there was an option to have a strap for smaller heads. Not needed for adults. It has a comfortable grip. Otherwise, this is a great value! Would consider purchasing more just to have on hand in the coming years- you can never have too many of these for the home.

These glasses DO NOT protect against UV rays. I performed a standard UV test using the invisible (to normal light) strip on US currency and the lenses allowed UV ray penetration. If you do not need that feature, they are otherwise fine. They should definitely remove the UV feature from their advertising.

Fit nice. Reliable and so handy to have.

thank you

good

Great for the price, do what it must do protect your eyes…. But it make an effect of fisheye… kind of weird the first time you were them….
