Engineering Safety Glasses Survey
Hey everyone!
Could you guys please fill out this survey for me? This is for my senior Engineering Class at my high school. It would be very appreciated. Thank you! http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/X52KT9R |
Re: Engineering Safety Glasses Survey
Survey done! My safety glass always impair my vision, either by condensation or scratches.

Re: Engineering Safety Glasses Survey
#5 - do you need to wear prescription glasses as well as safety glasses
I marked Yes, but this is really more of a Sometimes. Depends on whether I'm wearing contacts or not. |

Answered yes to the headaches but that is unrelated to safety glasses and more related to teams screaming "ROBOT!!!" in the pits and the overly loud music.

Re: Engineering Safety Glasses Survey
Done, interesting survey. Oddly enough, I've caught myself wearing safety glasses even when I don't need them a bunch of times. Never remember having a headache.

I've found some comfortable glasses that I take care of so they don't get scratched (I never leave them where students have access to them). They also have "cheater" bifocal lenses so I can see stuff close up, in my old age. |
Re: Engineering Safety Glasses Survey
Done,
I suspect that most people responding to this thread probably bought and care for their own personal pair of safety glasses and would give different results that are different than the average team member that simply pulls a pair out of the bin that I suspect most teams have inside the door to their work area. I know we populate that bin with CHEAP safety glasses that we ordered for around $1 a pair and they probably don't fit most people comfortably. |
Re: Engineering Safety Glasses Survey
Was that last one a trick question?
I hope everyone knows that dropping your safety glasses while doing something requires safety glasses instantly makes you less safe, whether it is because you're distracted for a moment or just plain unprotected. By the way, it is possible to polish scratches out of safety glasses (and other plastic products like it, like airplane windscreens), so don't write off a nice comfy pair just because you can't see through them yet. |

My prescription safety glasses cost $300, and I trust my eyesight to them. Worth every penny. Do you have any idea how much a braille newspaper costs? ::safety:: |

Re: Engineering Safety Glasses Survey
My safety glasses are more grab-and-go (cheap ones that I took from my brother) and are defiantly showing their 5 years (maybe more) wear. Hopefully I'm adding some normalcy to the data.

Re: Engineering Safety Glasses Survey
My view of the value of safety glasses is slightly skewed since my company provides them to us free of charge. That being said I value the glasses sitting on my face properly and having full range of vision without fogging over their ability to get scratched since I can easily replace them.

Re: Engineering Safety Glasses Survey
The main issue I have with safety glasses is that, since I wear glasses and my nose doesn't have room for a second pair, my safety glasses rest on the frame of my normal glasses. Over time the additional weight on the nose pads begins to get quite irritating.

Re: Engineering Safety Glasses Survey
I have found that McMaster-Carr's 55035T3 are the best all around safety glasses. They are fog-free (really), easily go over prescription glasses, are comfortable with adjustable angle and ear pieces, and the frame can be reused on new lenses which can also be purchased (55035T92). I keep these for people who don't need safety glasses enough to justify safety prescription lenses.
Personally, I have a set of prescription safety glasses. They have a set of prescription lenses in a frame under a Uvex safety shield which can be replaced. Still the same number of surfaces to look through, but only one thing hanging on your head. The replacement shields are available on-line for a few dollars, but you still have to buy new prescription lenses whenever you get new (regular) glasses. The expense is justified by keeping the only two eyeballs I will ever have safe. There are just some things you don't skimp on! Dr. Bob |
