Bifocal safety glasses combine fashionable wraparound styling with Ansi protection and magnified reading segments
Wizard Industries says its Safety Specs have received much praise for combining the convenience of reading glasses with Ansi compliant safety glasses.
Wizard has now released the Safety Sport Specs, a new stylish design that combines sporting good looks and comfort, with the already popular protective eyewear. "These are bifocal safety glasses with style," notes Billy Carmen, CEO of Wizard Industries.
"We've manufactured them to the same standards, but given them a modern, wraparound design," he continued.
The new Safety Sport Specs are Ansi Z87.1-2003 compliant glasses, and offer full frontal impact protection.
Side protection is provided by the wraparound design that comfortably hugs the curve of the face.
But the feature that sets them apart from most other wraparound glasses is the built-in bifocal reading segment.
The glasses feature a 28mm flat-top bifocal reading segment, and are available in strengths from 1.0 diopter to 3.0 diopter in 0.5 diopter increments.
Millions of people over 40 need reading glasses to see fine print.
These glasses give these people the ability to have proper eye protection, and allow easy reading of plans, instructions and computer screens.
They can help prevent accidents by allowing better close-up vision of fine detail work. "We're really happy to add the Safety Sport Specs to our safety eyewear line of protective eyewear.
"Our original Safety Specs offered great protection, but because of their larger size, some people would only wear them in the shop. "The new style is more comfortable and fashionable", continued Carmen.
The Safety Sport Specs are now available at hardware, woodworking, automotive and specialty tool, auto parts and sporting goods stores at a retail cost of US$14.95.
