Tinted Safety Glasses Anti-Scratch Lenses

The Milwaukee safety glasses with 1.5 magnification are very handy work glasses for eye protection. I keep these with my CERT (Citizens Emergency Response Team) pack for the required eye protection since they keep me from also having to keep up with reading glasses. They are a great design and fit to the face - quite comfortable. They’re also very durable.

These glasses are perfect for working outdoors in the sun. These are great for use with an edger, a chainsaw, pole saw or large hedge trimmer. I even sometimes just grab them when I need a pair of sunglasses for driving. They look okay, not dorky or oversized. They fit well and are comfortable on my face and over my ears. They weigh less than one ounce. I can wear them for hours. I am a little near-sighted so I only use these safety glasses when I am wearing contact lenses. These are not designed to be worn over the top of prescription eyeglasses. The packaging for this pair (part# 48-73-2015) indicates they have a Limited Lifetime warranty, but it doesn’t cover “defective due to normal wear/tear and abuse” -- only products that are “defective in material or workmanship”. The Home Depot Web-site seems to have combined reviews for several different types of Milwaukee Safety Glasses. This pair is not “fog-free”, but it is anti-scratch. It is also not the “performance” style. That style has a full frame. The frame must provide superior protection, but it also kind of looks dorky. These are nice sunglasses. If I had known about the model with the anti fog feature (Model# 48-73-2107) I would have gotten those because the anti-fog feature would be helpful when wearing a facemask. However, I am fully vaccinated now so I rarely wear a facemask outdoors.

Finally, Bifocals that my husband will wear. He has needed reading glasses for several years now. He keeps a tiny foldable pair in the thigh pocket of his cargo pants and frequently wears a pair with a magnetic closure at the nose bridge piece. However, he refused to try bifocals -- until I handed these to him while he was working on some very long cuts with his worm-drive saw. Now he and these glasses are almost inseparable. The bifocal portion of these glasses provides +3.0 magnification, but Milwaukee also makes these glasses with 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 and 2.5 magnification. The provide good coverage close to my eyes -- close enough to keep out flying sawdust. I attached some photos of the glasses (on my face because he is camera shy). They fit well and are comfortable on my face and over my ears. I can wear them for hours. I am near-sighted so I only use bifocals when I am wearing contact lenses. These are not designed to be worn over the top of prescription eyeglasses.

PROS The bi-focal safety glasses have large lenses to maximize protection to the eyes and the temple arms are firm, but flexible to keep the glasses on the head while working. The magnification section of the glasses is awesome for those with a need to look at more detail. CONS Plastic packaging not marked as to its recyclability. Made in China (would rather it be made in USA).

Unless I got a defective one, terrible quality. Broke after 2 weeks of use at ear piece. No impact. Placed on face and it broke.

The yellow tinted safety glasses are perfect for indoor and low light use to increase contrast on the work pieces. They don’t fog up, so you can wear them with N95 and other masks without causing a fog. They are comfortable and fit well over the face and the plastic arms are soft and flexible. They cover over the cheeks and protect from debris flying from underneath. I use them when I work inside the garage doing woodworking and using rotary tools. They are especially good when you have to look at small details as they increase the contrast, so you can better see the boundaries and lines. Overall, these are great safety glasses to use indoors in low light settings.

I absolutely love these safety glasses! I have a few different safety glasses hanging over my workbench and I find myself grabbing these more often than others. They are comfortable, light, cover my face well, and don’t leave much open space over my cheeks under my eyes, providing better protection from debris flying upwards. The best part for me (probably why I keep grabbing these) is the fact that they don’t fog up. I use them with N95 masks while doing woodworking and any other glasses fog up with every exhale. These, amazingly, don’t! I use them while woodworking, cutting wood, working with rotary tools, and doing yard work like mowing the lawn. I once had an injury when a stone fragment flew into my eye while I was mowing the lawn. I was wearing sunglasses at the time, thinking they would protect me, but the fragment flew under the glasses and stuck in my eye, requiring a trip to the optometrist. Lesson learned! Ever since, I always wear safety glasses while mowing, trimming, or blowing leaves, and of course working with tools. Before getting these Milwaukee glasses, I dreaded that fog, and it almost made me not want to wear them due to that inconvenience. If fog bothers you and makes you not want to wear safety glasses, get these! I even tested these with the steam coming from a boiling pot, and it still didn’t fog. Your eyes are valuable, don’t leave them uncovered!

I’ll start by saying I hate wearing safety glasses, or any glasses for that matter. I always feel hot in them, I sweat and they inevitably fog up. Some sooner then others. With the advent of mask requirements, fogged up glasses has become much more of an issue. I decided to give these a try. While I didn’t see the safety standards listed online, the package had them clearly labeled. These glasses felt very comfortable as soon as I put them on. The rubberized arms kept them from slipping even when I started to sweat. I liked the slight gray tint as much of my work is outside so they helped with sun glare without being too dark. Best of all they did not fog up very easily except when I was sweating heavily. They are definitely the most fog free safety glasses I’ve tried yet.

The Milwaukee Performance Safety Glasses with Gray Fog-Free Lenses seem like well made safety glasses, perfect for outdoor use. I use these with my weed whacker, which throws rocks. The earpieces grip my head for a tight fit and they don't fall off when I lean over. The gray tint is great for sunny days. As with all plastic lenses, some care is required to not scratch them. These meet ANSI Z87.1+ Standard for Eye Protection, which makes me fell safe using these when operating lawn equipment or power tools. You only get one set of eyes, so protect them. Nice glasses.

Amazing Clarity, Comfort, & Fit. Actually- can wear these all day. Distortion free. Hands down- these are The Best safety glasses I’ve worn. Mainly because the comfortable lightweight just right fit makes wearing them easy. Especially liked them minimizing blowing dust from getting into eyes. Milwaukee anti scratch safety glass line has many options, including magnification! Will be ordering tinted and gray models. Glasses performed excellent for several weeks of DIY use; protecting eyes from metal cutting, blade sharpening, automotive battery replacement and lawn mower tune-up- blade blown debris, and from compressed air. Glasses performed perfectly at preventing debris from getting in eyes. They even seem to reduce 'dry scratchy eyes' when worn on windy days. Glasses are comfortable enough to wear all day. Between the light stay in place nose pads to the slightly curved & stay in place arms, these glasses are easy to wear. Highly satisfied and recommend the clear Anti-Scratch Safety Glasses.
