Search Safety Glasses By Lens Tint

The lens tint that safety glasses are made with is important. Different tints are used for different applications. Clear tint is an excellent choice for general indoor applications because it doesn’t warp color perception. If you’re going to be working outside most of the time, then you’ll probably want to get some safety glasses with gray tint.

If you plan to work inside and outside, consider getting a clear lens that has a slight mirror coating. Silver mirror, blue and gold tints are great for outdoor use because they reduce glare. Mirror coating reflects light and helps to reduce eyestrain.

Brown is the tint color that you’ll want to consider for outdoor applications that expose you to intense sunlight. Amber lens tint is great for blocking blue light, which produces the highest level of contrast improvement. An amber lens is especially useful for nighttime applications.
