A friend of mine was cutting straps off a carton at work, and the strap flew up and cut his eye. The doc couldn't think of any way to fix it except to wait to see if it would heal. It healed in a few anxious months. So there's something to be said for keeping safety glasses on all the time for when you're not expecting trouble.

Wow, he is lucky he was not blinded...

For tinted one I really like the pair I got at our Stihl dealer. They have quite a few diffenent ones and I just went in and tried them on till I found a pair I liked. I wear them as sunglasses and when I need them for safety glasses it is for weedeating or cutting stuff. They fit really well, don't fog up, and have provided great protection.

For clear one I haven't found a good pair so I can't help there.

I like the 3m "Metalliks". They got a metal frame..

That said, they all suck. I have a real problem with fogging them up, plus they almost seem to direct fine dust directly into my eye.!!

I had this argument with management types: "How is it safer if im all fogged up and cant see?" ... "Just wear them" is the usual response :mad:

At work we use something like a Crews Checkmate? tinted/clear. I'm not sure if that is the brand or not but the most comfortable saftey glasses I have worn and I have to wear them all day.

Edit:
The glasses are Gateway Safety-Star Lite models
