They provide a number of benefits to those wearing them; one of which being their ability to protect and offer defence against a number of hazardous materials.
A variety of jobs and activities expose your eyes to harmful particles; such as debris! Striking or scraping of the eye with such materials can have a dangerous and irreversible impact on the health and wellbeing of your eyes.

Would I benefit from a pair of Wraparound Safety Glasses?
Wraparound Safety Glasses appeal to a number of different people in both work and sport! They have copious benefits including their snug fitting shape; their peripheral coverage and their ability to be impact resistant. So, whether you’re up a ladder or a mountain, we are more than certain that you will see just how incredible these Safety Glasses really are!
Below, you will be able to find a list that we have created, detailing who we believe would benefit the most from using these insanely cool-looking Safety Glasses...
Jobs that involve the presence of debris and other small and sharp particles in the atmosphere would benefit from the use of Wraparound Safety Glasses. This is due to them having the power and ability to protect your eyes from harmful objects at multiple angles. For example, if you’re focussing heavily on a task in hand; your concentration on the job will be greater than your ability to see potential hazards to the side of you. Wraparound Safety Glasses will deem extremely useful in situations like this; due to their peripheral coverage; meaning you can focus on the task in hand and avoid unexpected incidents in the workplace.
This list highlights a selection of jobs and is by no means fully comprehensive of all the industries that would indeed utilise and benefit from Wraparound Safety Glasses. If your job is not present within the list; these safety glasses may still be of great use to you and your industry.
