Safety Goggles -Eyes Protection

Safety goggles, also known as eye goggles or protective goggles, are a type of personal protective equipment (PPE) designed to provide eye protection in hazardous work environments.
They are similar to safety glasses but provide additional coverage and protection to the sides of the eyes.
DSW is a leading provider of safety eyewear, including safety goggles. We offer a wide selection of eye goggles that meet industry standards and provide reliable protection against various workplace hazards.

Features and Characteristics

Full Eye Coverage: Safety goggles offer complete coverage around the eyes, including the sides, top, and bottom. This design provides a more secure and enclosed fit than safety glasses, minimizing the risk of hazards entering from different angles.
Impact Resistance: Like safety glasses, protective goggles are made from impact-resistant materials, typically polycarbonate, to withstand high-velocity impacts from flying objects, particles, or debris.
Sealed Design:  Protective goggles often have a sealed or close-fitting design, with a flexible frame and an elastic strap or adjustable headband. This helps create a secure and snug fit, preventing small particles, dust, liquids, or chemicals from reaching the eyes.
Ventilation: Many safety goggles feature indirect ventilation mechanisms, such as vents or perforations, to allow proper airflow and reduce fogging. This is particularly important in environments with high humidity or when wearing for extended periods.
Chemical and Splash Resistance: Lab goggles may offer chemical resistance and protection against liquid splashes. They have specialized coatings or materials that resist or withstand exposure to specific chemicals or liquids.
Prescription Compatibility: Similar to safety glasses, lab goggles are available in prescription form to accommodate individuals who require corrective lenses. Prescription safety goggles ensure clear vision and eye protection for those with vision impairments.
UV Protection: Some protective goggles also provide built-in ultraviolet (UV) protection to shield the eyes from harmful UV radiation. This feature is beneficial in outdoor work or situations where there is exposure to artificial UV light sources.
