Construction Industry Prescription Safety Eyewear

Construction jobs and busy work sites are especially challenging for eye and vision safety. From
excavation and framing structures, to pouring concrete and raising steel, the threat to employee eyesight
is virtually everywhere:

Flying sparks
Arc flash
Sun & glare
Dust, dirt, sand & grit
Airborne wood & metal fragments
Heavy equipment movement

It is no wonder that construction is one of the industries where a worker is most at risk of suffering eye injuries that nonprescription (plano) or prescription safety eyewear could help prevent. In almost every type of construction you will see wood or metal saws in use, spraying wood chips or metal fragments around; boards or other items swinging around while carried on the shoulder are precariously at eye height for surrounding workers; and nails or other fasteners are often being furiously nailed or bolted into place with little thought for any safety. A safety eyewear program that provides clear or prescription safety glasses to workers will go a long way in keeping losses low and production high. Our safety eyewear experts can help you design a program to meet the needs of your construction industry employees.
