AS/NZS 1337: Occupational eye and face protection
This Standard sets down the requirements for non-prescription eye protection.
There are four critical elements in compliant prescription eyewear.
1.) Appropriate frame
2.) Appropriate lens material and thickness
3.) Appropriate fitting
4.) Labeling and assuring compliance
Safety glasses allow air around the eye area as opposed to a seal against the face, to avoid dust and splashes.
Face shields provide further protection and can also be worn over the safety eyewear.
Most eye injuries and even smoke-related inflammation can be prevented by the use of proper protective eyewear.
