Safety glasses, generally speaking, have been developed to help provide impact protection for your eyes. With injury risks that can range from scratched corneas to total loss of vision, protective eyewear has become an integral part of any safety program. 

SMALL OBJECTS, BIG ISSUES

But what about dust, debris, and other airborne particles that can potentially maneuver around the lenses and reach your eyes? They may not cause blindness, but these types of hazards can cause eye irritation and temporary blurred vision, which can be just as dangerous. In fact, OSHA suggests that nearly 60% of all eye injuries are caused by objects that are smaller than a pinhead.

 

OLD-SCHOOL APPROACH

One option is wearing goggles. When many of us think of goggles, we flashback to our high school shop class and the impression that particular eyewear left with us, both figuratively and literally. That being said, they were worth it, considering the potential hazards during class. The old-school goggles provided a seal around the eyes to help block out even the smallest particles and saved us a trip to the school nurse.


Fortunately, there is a new choice for protecting your eyes from dust and debris that will save you from those flashbacks; a more comfortable, more stylish option that can deliver the protection you’re looking for. 

 

NEW-SCHOOL SOLUTION

Our Bouton® Optical line of safety eyewear has a comprehensive range of hybrid eyewear, featuring foam-lined frames that help narrow the gaps left around your eyes when compared to standard safety glasses. Each Bouton® Optical hybrid design features a 360° foam lining that covers the entire perimeter of the lens to help block debris coming from all angles. We’ve also incorporated venting systems to allow for better air circulation to prevent lens fogging. Our hybrid eyewear provides enhanced comfort and styling that today’s workers demand while providing protection that Safety Managers require.

I CAN SEE CLEARLY NOW

We know what you're thinking: Understanding the benefits of using protective eyewear is clear but wearing it in conjunction with face masks is a challenge due to the inevitable fog factor. And what's the point of purchasing safety glasses for my workers if they're just going to remove them once lens fogging sets in. Luckily for you, PIP® has a special technology that was developed to overcome this nuisance called FogLess® 3Sixty™ Technology. Most eyewear on the market has only a light anti-fog coating that wears away quickly. Only Bouton® Fogless® 3Sixty™ Technology adheres permanently to the lens, ensuring a long-lasting performance that withstands multiple lens cleanings. Best of all, this technology is available on a variety of Bouton® safety eyewear and goggles.
