Understand the Risks on Your Worksite

Every worksite contains hazards, and identifying the most common causes of eye injuries helps determine the correct eyewear for your team.

  • Mechanical tools and machinery: Equipment such as sanders releases fine particles capable of scratching the cornea. Full coverage eyewear prevents airborne debris from entering the eye.

  • Welding hazards: Welding produces intense heat and bright radiation that can impair vision. Eyewear offering suitable tinting and heat protection is essential.

  • Exposure to gases and liquids: Chemical splashes, vapours and irritants can cause long term eye damage. Choosing glasses with side protection or sealed designs helps prevent injury.

Form Direct carries a wide range of designs from basic protective eyewear to high impact lenses, allowing you to select options that suit your specific work environment.

Understand the Different Types of Lenses Available

Our safety glasses are made from lightweight polycarbonate and are available in universal and narrow frame sizes for a comfortable all day fit. Scratch resistant lenses offer UV protection, while other models provide enhanced features for challenging worksites.

  • Basic lenses: Suitable for general protection, providing a barrier against dust, debris and light water exposure.

  • Medium to high impact lenses: Deliver optical clarity, impact resistance and durability in low visibility or high risk environments. They are treated for UV exposure and heat resistance.

  • Tinted lenses: Recommended for outdoor and heat related work, providing additional protection from intense light and radiation.
