Wrap Around Safety Glasses FAQs

What are Wrap Around Safety Glasses?

Wrap around prescription safety glasses are a semi-circular frame that wraps around one’s head. They prevent debris and other particles from entering your eyes. This incredible safety aspect is what makes them so loved by customers, especially as they provide an elevated sense of safety without the need for side shields–both on and off the job.

What are the advantages of prescription safety glasses?

Prescription safety glasses like wrap around frames are built to give your superior vision. They prevent the sun’s light from creeping in around the edges which gives wearers better focus. Reducing bright spots and glare when one is in outdoor environments is extremely important, as it prevents distractions and blurred vision. With prescription safety wrap around glasses, one can add his or her unique prescription to the frames, allowing individuals to focus on the moments and tasks that matter most.
Prescription safety wrap around glasses also tend to have a lightweight nature. Because they weigh less than traditional frames, wearers tend to have a more comfortable experience. This allows them to be perfect for all-day wear. Being easy to wear, you can experience ease and functionality, all in the same product.
Wrap around safety glasses with prescription are also great because they are a more modern style than traditional frames. With sleeker designs, not only do you have the option of customizing unique prescriptions, but you also have access to a wider variety of styles, colours, and lens options. Not only does this provide more aesthetic on and off the clock, but you’re able to incorporate your personal style through your frames with ease, as there is more versatility with wrap around safety glasses.

Why is it that you can do my prescription in a wraparound but my eye doctor can’t?

Our facility is geared towards prescription safety eyewear and sunglasses. Because wraparounds are more popular (and more functional) than safety glasses with side shields, our facility makes a lot more wraparound prescriptions than the average eye doctor. We have special, state-of-the-art lens surfacing and edging equipment capable of creating prescriptions in frames that many labs are forced to avoid. We can often make prescriptions in wraparounds, where other labs can’t because of the specialized nature of our facility and the experience of our team.

How to buy wrap around safety glasses?

While it may be tempting to grab wrap around safety glasses with different lens colours, keep in mind that mirror and polarized lenses aren’t best for everything. So consider your personal or professional needs, and any environments you are in. For instance, polarized lenses are great for enhancing visual clarity near outdoor environments, especially bodies of water. They can also reduce depth perception, making it difficult to see a ski slope or patch of ice, for instance.
