For wearers of prescription safety glasses, fogged lenses are a major annoyance. Condensation on your glasses is not only annoying, but because your vision is obstructed, it can also lead to dangerous situations.

What are prescription safety glasses?

You expect a workplace to be safe to work in. But when your vision is impaired, it can lead to dangerous situations. During certain activities, harmful substances and/or materials are often released that we do not take into account. Our prescription safety glasses protect your employees' eyes and offer protection agaomst external impact. With our prescription safety glasses, we offer the most comfortable safety glasses with corrective lenses at the best price.

Why do your prescription safety glasses fog up?

Condensation occurs when water vapor comes into contact with an object that is colder than the surrounding air. In this case, the moisture actually hits the cold surface of the lens, creating tiny droplets on the surface. The droplets form a layer of water and reduce your vision.

Safety glasses and face mask

The combination of safety glasses and a face mask is experienced as very unpleasant by many spectacle wearers. If the breath "escapes" and comes into contact with the cold lenses, the safety glasses fog up.

Here are a few tips to prevent your glasses from fogging up.

  • Make sure the face mask fits properly
    When the face mask fits properly, less breath escapes, making your glasses less likely to fog up.
  • Place the face mask properly around your nose
    Try to put the mask high on your nose and put your glasses on it. This way, the face mask closes better.
  • Breathe down into the face mask
    When you breathe down, your lenses fog up less easily.
  • Clean your lenses properly
    The cleaner your lenses are the less condensation will form.
