Eye protection is essential when working with warm glass - bead making and enameling. Cold glass, when heated too quickly, may fragment off. It is essential to wear eye protective gear to shield oneself from possible hazardous glass projectiles. These clear Diamond Tech Fireworks Safety Glasses will protect with comfort and style, but that is not all they offer:

One-piece polycarbonate lens for superior impact resistance

Extension adjustable templates for a perfect fit. They also fit over most prescription glasses

Integral side-shields for added protection

Meets ANSI Z87.1

UV 400 guards against ultraviolet and INFRARED rays (*very important when working with kilns)

Lightweight for comfort and balance.

*The main reason for this is that hot glass emits infrared rays. Prolonged exposure to infrared wavelengths can result in cataracts, a blurring of the vision that often occurs many years after repeated unprotected exposure. You can block infrared rays by using the right kind of eyeglasses. Lamp-working glasses (which have didymium lenses) don't block infrared rays and shouldn't be used for kiln work.
