RONWEIX Anti Fog Safety Goggles Protective Eyewear, Anti-Scratch Eye Protection with Amber Lens Safety Glasses

Protect Your Eyes with Safety Glasses Our eyes, carrying complexities like the lens, retina, and pupil that were naturally selected over millions of years, are important. In addition to interacting with the world around us, this pair of organs can be essential in how others interpret our emotions. Unfortunately, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), about 2,000 U.S. workers sustain a job-related eye injury each day that requires medical treatment. Due to the sheer importance of the human eye, every effort should be made to eliminate eye and face hazards in occupational and educational settings. Many professionals look to the “Z87” marking on safety glasses and similar eye and face protection apparatus to assure their effectiveness. ANSI Z87.1 Safety Glasses Such markings relay adherence to the minimum requirements laid out in the ANSI Z87.1 standard. Marking specifications are outlined in ANSI/ISEA Z87.1-2020, but this document covers a range of information, setting forth criteria related to the requirements, testing, permanent marking, selection, care, and use of protectors to minimize the occurrence and severity or prevention of injuries. These injuries include impact, non-ionizing radiation and liquid splash exposures in occupational and educational environments such as machinery operations, material welding and cutting, chemical handling, and assembly operations. Please note, however, that ANSI/ISEA Z87.1-2020 does not cover other hazardous exposures like bloodborne pathogens, X-rays, high-energy particulate radiation, microwaves, radio-frequency radiation, lasers, masers, and sports and recreation. As a performance-oriented standard, ANSI/ISEA Z87.1-2020 requirements apply to protectors when first placed in service. This way, protectors bearing the permanent marking Z87 meet all applicable requirements of this standard in its entirety.
