When you think of safety eyewear, you most likely think of thick plastic frames with side guards and seals, or big goggles with an elastic strap. Though these are types of safety eyewear (and very effective ones at that!), you would probably only wear them in situations you think they are needed, like construction work, shop work, or lawncare. What you may not know is that safety glasses can take many forms, including frames that look like normal eyeglasses, and can be useful in everyday tasks at work, home, or anywhere else. With prescription safety glasses, you can even wear them full-time, maintaining both your style and your protection. To give you a good idea of what everyday safety glasses can do and look like, here are four of our most versatile safety glasses—

These mixed material frames are perfect for someone who needs strong front and side protection while at work, and a comfortable, lightweight and bold look on the go. The side shields are detachable, so these glasses go from protective equipment to stylish vision correctors. These are perfect for everyday wear, whether you are working hard at the jobsite, or out on the town with your friends.
Pentax Gamma
