There are many types of eye wear that will fit over glasses, as you all know. We worked with a vendor to have them send options for us to try out. We noticed that some gave certain people headaches and some fit others better. Did they just try one set of the over spectacles? Maybe you could either purchase a few different options the EHS office can have people try or see if a vendor will send samples to try? This could also help out others that are looking for a comfy pair of over spectacle safety glasses.
Just an thought.

Hi All:

A researcher has very thick prescription eyewear and has been told that the prescription can't be produced in safety eyewear. Over spectacles eyewear make him nauseous.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
