At Glasses Canada, we are excited to present our in-house line of prescription safety glasses. Whether you work a demanding nine-to-five job with lots of flying debris or simply enjoy woodworking in your spare time, our line of prescription safety glasses can help you see clearly while offering the maximum amount of protection for your eyes.
To start, our collection of prescription safety glasses is manufactured according to rigorous safety standards. We have an in-house lab that allows us to create the highest quality frames for our customers. While we pay close attention to all elements of the design process, we take special care in ensuring that safety glasses offer the maximum amount of protection. Along with this, many of our prescription safety glasses are ANSI approved. This can give you the confidence that your prescription safety glasses are durable and will protect you from flying dust, sand, radiation, and flying debris. Incorporating your prescription lenses into your favourite pair is also completely seamless.
As you can see below, we have designed many different types of prescription safety glasses. You can filter out your individual preferences by using the tool on the left side of this page. For instance, you can filter out based on frame style, frame features, temple features, and safety ratings. In terms of design, you can select from a long list of frame colours, like blue, camouflage, matte demi, taupe, and pink.
A common problem for people who wear glasses with a very high prescription strength is a lack of selection when it comes to frames. As you increase the curvature of lenses, they become thicker. With higher prescriptions, lenses grow so thick that they can come in contact with the eyelashes or face, and extremely thick lenses are also difficult or impossible to insert into many stylish wraparound frames. Another issue is your vision: high prescriptions in wraparound frames cause distortion due to the thickness of the lenses and their abnormal nearness to the cornea. Generally speaking, wraparound frames are not a good choice for prescriptions where the cylinder measurement exceeds +/- 2.50 or the sphere exceeds +/- 5.0.
That’s where this high RX glasses collection on our website comes in. If you’re somebody who has a high prescription, then this list is for you: all of the frames listed below will work with high prescriptions. This list features stylish and/or wraparound styles that can accommodate high prescriptions, either through a special type of lens pocket, an optical illusion, or a trick of eyeglasses engineering. All of these frames have our seal of approval for high prescriptions, and each has been used by real customers and shown to consistently work for people with high prescriptions.
