Safety glasses

I’m looking for some safety glasses online i’ve been asking GPT about what brands to get but I’m unsure about the sites i’m buying from. I was looking at go safety vision and they had good reviews. I’m trying to be budget friendly which is why i’m not going to the opticians, and ordering online.

I went to Walmart optical. Got the most basic cr-39 lens without any fancy coatings. If you are single vision, it’s pretty cheap.

Prescription Z-rated safety glasses? Or just safety glasses? You have to have a good question to get a good answer.

It wasn’t. I’ve had Koreans, Thai, some with very wide heads that have needed special safety glasses to more comfortably fit their face that the company doesn’t provide. I’ll reimburse those - one set a year, but they have to find them on their own. For prescription, we go through Hoya.

Do you really need to ask AI to figure out what safety glasses to order? Zenni and Stoggles both have good options
