If you have ANSI Z87 rated prescription glasses, with clear lenses and side shields, you shouldn't need an additional layer. The only exception would be scenarios where you'd want lab-style goggles, and those are generally prohibited in the pit anyways.

"Thanks for your concern. These are prescription safety glasses."
