3M OX Safety Glasses: Eye Protection Over Prescription Glasses

Manufacturer code 3M: 70000002373

Clear lenses are ideal for visitors and for work requiring protection against projectiles. These unisex, lightweight safety glasses are made of polycarbonate, a material resistant to impacts. However, they do not offer protection against sun glare, as they let through approximately 85% of light for maximum visibility. They do, however, protect against all UV rays with 99.9% efficiency. The clear polycarbonate frame and the black extendable straight temples make the glasses flexible and facilitate adjustment.

The 3M OX safety glasses are specially designed for professionals who wear prescription glasses. Thanks to their spacious and ergonomic design, they easily fit over most prescription frames, ensuring complete protection against splashes, particles, and debris. Their clear polycarbonate lens guarantees excellent visibility while protecting against impacts and UV rays.

This model is ideal for industrial environments, laboratories, or workshops where eye safety is essential.
