Looking for safety glasses, tried and true, that have a dust gasket, fog free, scratch resistant, and a bonus for having readers. Googling the subject, gets me no where after reading the reviews.
Try looking for goggles, the dust gasket usually drives you there. My fog free glasses use a spray to help keep it effective.

I wear Rx safety glasses from Zenni but for some applications nothing beats goggles with an elastic strap. Using carbide burrs overhead or if you’re under an exceptionally dirty vehicle, etc.

Just bought two pair, one smoke one clear, to wear over my regular glasses for upcoming trips to the PNW smoke zone the next two months.
The fashion-conscious are wearing a PAPR.

My favorite topic. Not.
I have a few, all prescription. Best one's are the curved one's I use for welding. The other are really good but don't offer a good side protection.

These arrived today. After a quick check with our prescription glasses underneath, both of us felt they were very comfortable. Only a two minute test, but much better than other goggles I’ve worn over the decades.

I could imagine using readers underneath would be ok. Bifocals maybe not so much due to how much the foam increases the frame size..

Have you tried guard dogs? Like their side car or dustbuster models? They have some RX frames as well.


They were issuing them to us in Iraq flying helicopters in the sand.

When they were updating safety gear in the factory I worked in I recommended them and they became one of the most requested style for the guys in the areas where die grinders were used due to their comfort.

That was the XJ2 style.
