Protect Your Vision in Specialized Eyewear

In Canada, there are 700 eye injuries reported on the job every day. That’s a staggering statistic, but thankfully, 90% of these incidents are preventable with proper safety equipment

  • Dislike of layering multiple pairs of glasses.
  • Discomfort due to ill-fitting safety glasses.
  • Self-consciousness about the appearance of the eyewear.
  • Lack of emphasis on safety in the workplace.

Put safety first while meeting your eye needs at work. Find safety eyewear that meets CSA standards fits comfortably (and correctly!), and looks good while it does its job. Outfit yourself for the shop, field, or wherever your day takes you and pick up proper safety eyewear at Calgary Optometry Centre.
