Frequently Asked Questions [FAQ]

What Are ANSI Safety Glasses?

ANSI is short for the America National Standards Institute. This body sets standards for various products to help ensure they meet a minimum level of effectiveness. When a pair of safety glasses are ANSI-rated, that means they have been shown to meet the standards set by ANSI for a specific rating.

For safety glasses, the ANSI ratings are typically related to protection from impacts and other eye hazards. If you are using your glasses for eye safety, you likely want to find a pair that are rated by ANSI or a similar body. These typically offer the best protection for your eyes.

What Does the ANSI Z87 Rating Mean?

Z87 is a standard set by ANSI for eye protection from glasses. PrescriptionSafetyGlasses.net offers Z87 prescription safety glasses in addition to our non-prescription safety glasses.

The standard covers impact, splash and dust and optical radiation protection. These are separate sub-standards and a pair may be rated for impact but not optical radiation protection, for example. Most ANSI Z87.1 prescription safety glasses have a marking at the temple indicating their rating. Additionally, our product pages include this information for all pairs of frames.

OSHA requires a Z87 rating for work glasses. However, there have been several revisions of the standard and not all are accepted by OSHA. Check with the agency for the latest information on what you need for the workplace.

Do Polycarbonate Lenses Meet ANSI Standards?

All our polycarbonate lenses are ANSI Z87 rated and meet the standard. Check the product page to ensure that a pair of safety glasses you are interested in is appropriately rated.

PrescriptionSafetyGlasses.net offers a polycarbonate lens option that can make prescription safety glasses Z87-rated. This is available on many of our frames but not all. Please select the “Add Prescription Lenses” option to ensure that a pair of frames has a prescription safety glasses Z87 polycarbonate option.

Top Z87 Prescription Safety Glasses Features

Specialty Glasses

In the world of glasses, there seems to be only two options: the fashionable glasses or the functional glasses. Much of the time, these two categories don’t overlap, forcing anyone who wants to protect their eyes from sunlight, debris, moisture or chemicals as well as those who wear corrective lenses for any reason to lose out on the world of functional and sporty safety glasses. This no longer has to be the case, however. In what was once seen as an impossible combination, safety glasses are now being produced that are not only stylish, but functional and sporty as well! You can now wear the same pair of ANSI safety glasses while working and hunting or golfing.

Certified Protection

The existing standard for safety glasses published by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) is called the Z87.1-2010. ANSI Z87 Safety glasses are also considered OSHA Approved Safety Glasses. Standards such as the Z87 safety glasses criteria assure that these glasses hold up to a variety of pressures that would cause other glasses to shatter or fail to protect your eyes. While there are ANSI Z87.1 prescription safety glasses crafted for specific places and lighting, all of them are rigorously tested to assure protection from blunt impact, small dust particles, splashes and droplets and radiation. Glasses that pass these tests are some of the toughest on the market, but that doesn’t mean they can’t be comfortable too.

Comfort and Style

Get ready for the new generation of safety glasses Z87. These safety glasses are crafted to be flexible enough for a comfy fit without being wimpy in the face of danger. Careful padding is employed along the earpieces and nose so that red marks that used to be common in ill-fitting or heavy glasses aren’t an issue. These styles are crafted to be fully protective without the awkward drawbacks of older styles. The tight fit and deluxe shaping ensure quality all-around protection.
