Yes, PSG prescription safety glasses are specifically designed and manufactured to provide excellent eye protection. PSG offers a wide range of models including those with integrated side shields all the way to the bottom of the frame front, wrap around designs and foam backed designs that help shield from particles, dust, debris and other workplace hazards from multiple angles; front, top and sides.

Not only do PSG frames look good, but they are also, most importantly, fit for purpose.

PSG Eyewear offer a wide range of prescription lens designs, all frames are available with Single Vision (single power across the lens), Bifocal (distance and near), Multifocal (distance, intermediate and near) and Occupational (varied use).

PSG also offers a range of prescription lens treatments and coatings; Polarised (sunglasses), Transitions®, anti-fog, anti-reflective and blue light protective coatings.

If you are unsure what the best choice of lens and lens treatment is for you, your working environment and prescription, the PSG team is happy to assist in recommending the most appropriate options.

This all depends on your work environment and where you spend a majority of your work day. PSG can recommend:

Transitions® lenses: If you frequently move between indoor and outdoor environments. Transitions® lenses automatically adapt to changing light conditions and are clear indoors and dark outdoors.

Clear lenses: If you spend the majority of your time indoors.

Polarised lenses: If you spend extended periods of your day outdoors where sun protection and glare reduction are essential.

Tinted lenses: Some digital screens and LCD displays can be difficult to read when wearing polarised lenses, in this case tinted lenses are the best choice.

If you are unsure what the best choice lens treatment is for you, your working environment and prescription, the PSG team is happy to assist in recommending the most appropriate options.

It is important to note that some high risk tasks require additional eye and face protection. Activities such as chemical handling and management, or tasks with a risk of splashes may require a full face shield or face mask to be worn over/in addition to certified prescription safety glasses, in accordance with your workplace risk assessments and safety requirements.

Prescription safety glasses are not recommended for use in areas where high levels of airborne solvents are encountered.

Proper care, cleaning and storage will help maximise the life of any lenses. For cleaning, PSG recommend using warm soapy water or specialised lens cleaning spray and a soft cloth (such as the cloth supplied - these need to be washed or replaced regularly). Best practice is to clean your lenses while wet to avoid dust and dirt scratching the lenses.

Do not use anything other than the suggested items to clean your glasses (such as shirt, rough towel or aloe vera tissues).

Commonly used substances, including sunscreens, are known to degrade some eye protector materials. Contact with such substances should be regularly cleaned off the spectacles after use.

Keep your PSG Safety glasses in the supplied case when not in use.

Prescription safety glasses should not be left unworn under direct sunlight (heat) for extended periods of time, such as in vehicles.
