Safety spectacles are glasses/spectacles which are meant to protect the eyes from foreign objects and/or chemical splashes. Safety spectacles can be made up with a prescription to correct the wearers vision or they can be non prescription. Safety spectacles are usually quite large compared to normal everyday spectacles and they fit closely to the wearers head and will have side protection to block any objects or chemicals being splashed into the wearers eyes. People who work in jobs doing wood work or metal work or people working in some types of factories or building sites will be required to wear safety specs to protect their eyes.

What safety standards do you need to fulfil for your workplace? It is always best to check with your safety supervisor at work to confirm the safety requirements for your glasses and your workplace.

Why are normal glasses never a substitute for safety glasses?

Normal glasses are not impact-resistant like safety glasses, so they can easily shatter upon impact and fail to protect the eyes from flying debris or other hazards. Safety glasses are specifically designed and tested to meet safety standards for impact resistance and provide proper eye protection in hazardous environments.
