These lenses are suitable for most trades where work takes place outside including for construction, landscapers, and road and site maintenance. When choosing a lens, the weather conditions need to be taken into account.
UV Protective Lenses
In sunny conditions glasses with a mirror coating are an excellent choice as these reflect the light, therefore reducing the amount passing through the lens and preventing eyestrain.
There are many choices such as Crews Triwear Blue Diamond or Desperado Silver designs. Alternatively, try one of the latest Elvex styles; Orbit (a cool wrap design) Blue or the economical Trix Silver mirror lenses.
Glare Reducing Eyewear
Grey lenses also reduce glare and are great for sun protection. The Crews Desperado Grey will fit the bill, or alternatively the SphereX from Elvex is a bold safety glass design with an NCB Grey lens.
Low Light Safety Glasses
For more ambient light, such as early morning or cloudy weather conditions; choose an amber lens such as Crews CK2 Yellow high visibility lens. This absorbs blue and ultra violet light, therefore filtering out hazy light that may be hard on the eyes and so making everything seem brighter.
