Goggles

Goggles, also known as protective glasses, are a kind of filter that mainly prevents radiation light from causing damage to the eyes by changing the intensity and spectrum of the transmitted light. Goggle glasses prevent external harmful substances or light from causing damage to the eyes, such as strong light, splashes, chemicals, ultraviolet rays, etc., by changing the intensity and spectrum of the transmitted light.

Types of eye goggles

Classified by function: dust-proof goggles, anti-ultraviolet goggles, anti-blue light goggles, anti-chemical goggles, anti-radiation goggles, etc.

Function of safety goggles

• Prevent foreign matter from entering the eyes: During work or exercise, protective eyewear can effectively block flying particles, dust and other foreign matter from entering the eyes, preventing physical damage to the eyes.
• Protect against harmful light: The lenses of eye protection glasses can have specific filtering properties, which can absorb or reflect harmful light, such as ultraviolet rays, infrared rays, etc., to protect the eyes from light radiation.
• Prevent chemicals from splashing into the eyes: In chemical experiments or when handling chemicals, safety glasses can prevent harmful chemicals from splashing into the eyes and prevent chemical burns to the eyes.
• Reduce eye fatigue: For people who face computer screens for a long time or do delicate work, protective goggles can reduce eye fatigue and dryness, and improve work comfort and efficiency.
• Provide a clear vision: The lenses of eye goggles are usually treated with special treatments such as anti-fog and anti-scratch, which can ensure that the wearer can get a clear view in various environments.
• Enhance eye hygiene: Goggles can reduce the contact between the eyes and microorganisms such as bacteria and viruses in the air, help enhance eye hygiene, and reduce the risk of eye infection.

Application

Protective eyewear is used on many occasions, including but not limited to:

• Construction sites: On construction sites, workers often need to operate various machines and tools. Goggles can effectively prevent dust, debris, wood chips, and other splashes from hurting the eyes.
• Medical laboratories: When experimenters come into contact with experimental supplies that may irritate and hurt the eyes, goggles can reduce the risk of injury.
• Skiing and skating: When exercising in a cold environment, goggles can prevent cold wind, snowflakes, ice chips, etc. from invading the eyes.
• High-altitude and polar expeditions: In extreme climates, goggles can effectively isolate ultraviolet rays and prevent eye problems such as snow blindness.
• Lathe workers, sanders, stone workers: These workers need to prevent small flying particles from penetrating their eyes when working.
• Electric welding, gas welding, steelmaking, and glass blowing: These workers should wear arc radiation glasses.
• Workers who face computers for a long time: Wearing special goggles can reduce the damage from blue light to the eyes.

Precautions

When using protective goggles, pay attention to the use of dedicated personnel. It is forbidden to exchange them to prevent the spread of eye diseases or accidents caused by inappropriate goggles. It is very important to choose the right eye protective goggles. Different types of goggles are suitable for different environments and needs.

There are different types of goggles on SISCO: laser protective goggles, anti-blue light goggles, welding safety goggles, etc. Please contact us if you would like to get more information about goggles.
