Nail this into your head: Safety glasses prevent small objects, sometimes at high velocities, from damaging your precious eyes. Ever priced an eye lately?
Assuming your regional was an exception, they usually allow the following:
-grinding using Dremel bits, NOT angle grinders or bench grinders.
-hand drill, both corded and cordless, are allowed. Just as long as you are not abusing it, like using a 4" hole saw on a 1/4" drill.
-sawing with a hacksaw, jigsaw, or reciprocating saw. No bandsaws, including portable bandsaws.
Keep in mind that you way not be actually doing anything, but you neighbor next to you may be shooting a staple gun for fun.

In a perfect world everyone would act in such a safe manner that we would not need to wear safety glasses, but we aren't in a perfect world, are we? Wear COMFORTABLE safety glasses or else I'll bite your head off.
