There’s a lot that can harm us in the great outdoors, especially if we find ourselves working in an outdoor environment. Everything from dirt, debris, and dust to other hazards can get into our eyes easily. But, in addition, it’s what we cannot see that can also harm us, which is UV radiation, which can be extremely damaging.

That’s why you want to consider getting yourself a pair of prescription safety sunglasses that will help protect your eyesight from these hazards and keep you focused on your work. Safety sunglasses for outdoor workers come with a slew of protective benefits, such as having a built-in or removable foam gasket to protect against dirt and debris, as well as having the frame and lenses protect against impact and high-velocity projectiles.

In addition, Safety glasses for outdoor workers can come with polarized lenses for clarity of vision as well as coatings on the lenses to help prevent and reduce fogging.

Not only will your eyes be protected against long-term damage, but you’ll also help reduce overall eye strain, especially with polarized options that help to reduce glare as well.

7Eye Panhead

The 7Eye Prescription Safety Sunglasses come in either glossy black or matte black. They also are extremely comfortable with the foam gasket that acts as padding and protection and the filtered vents to allow proper airflow.

In addition, these come in a wraparound design to ensure a safe and secure overall fit. You’ll also get 100% UVA and UVB protection with the lenses and can opt to get these as prescription safety sunglasses directly through RX-Safety. These are also rated at ANSI Z87+ impact standards.

Bolle Tryon OTG

These are actually Bolle Glasses that easily can be worn over most prescription glasses sizes. You can get these in a Black and Blue Frame with either Smoke Platinum or Clear Platinum lenses. The lenses themselves are extremely durable, with anti-fog and scratch-resistant coating.

They’re extremely lightweight with their TR-90 nylon construction but also meet ANSI Z87.1 high impact and velocity protection. Do remember that these are an excellent choice but do not come with the opportunity for a prescription with the lenses. They are meant to be worn over other prescription glasses or even prescription safety glasses already owned.
