We never know where our next story will come from. I received this email today from my sister-in-law, who happens to be an owner-partner in Texas America Safety Company, our parent company. This incident can happen to anyone who is working in the yard during this time of the year when leaves are falling and grass and other debris is blowing.
She writes:
“ I got a tiny speck in my eye from a dead tree branch that I pulled down. It took me a long time to get it out, and my eye was red and hurting. I thought I might have to go to the ER but I finally got it out. Who would think that such a tiny speck would hurt so much! I went to the optometrist the next day and he gave me some drops, but didn’t see any damage. I immediately went to our office and bought some over-the-glasses safety glasses. I’ll attach a picture. Our receptionist said that they get many speck problems every Monday as people often work in their yards on the weekend. Even mowing, we need to wear eye protection.”
The fact is, there are safety glasses made to fit right over your glasses, so you can not only protect them from debris, such as leaves and grass, but you’ll have better vision, as well, since you can wear your own glasses under them.
We hope those of you who enjoy your fall workouts in the yard will try a pair of these. It just might save you a trip to the emergency room!
· Lenses provide 99% protection against harmful UV rays · Exceeds ANSI Z87.1-2003 High Impact requirements · Lenses are coated for superior scratch resistance · Lightweight nylon temples that adjust for length and pitch · Single lens protection encapsulates the eye for superb protection · Designed to better fit today’s prescription eyewear
The Pyramex OTS safety glasses are a new style of over-the-glass safety glass. It is designed to fit over your prescription eyewear and still be comfortable. The OTS fits today’s smaller RX frame styles and does not have the size and bulk of most over the glass safety glasses. It’s a great alternative to prescription safety glasses.
Thanks, Judy, for sharing your experience with us. These would be great for anyone who wears glasses and enjoys doing outdoor jobs.
