Protect Your Vision: National Eye Safety Awareness Month

Protect Your Vision: National Eye Safety Awareness Month

October is National Eye Safety Awareness Month, a time dedicated to highlighting the importance of protecting your eyes, especially in high-risk environments like construction, woodworking, and electrical work. At Salus Eyewear, we’re proud to support this initiative by offering 20% off all our safety glasses throughout October.

Why Eye Protection is Essential

Every day, thousands of workers in the UK put their vision at risk. According to the Health and Safety Executive (HSE), a significant number of workplace eye injuries could be avoided with the correct protective eyewear. Whether you're a carpenter, electrician, or DIY enthusiast, safeguarding your eyes against hazards like dust, debris, UV rays, and flying projectiles is essential. Wearing certified safety glasses can prevent serious and potentially permanent eye damage.

The Salus Eyewear Difference

At Salus, we provide safety glasses that meet UK and European safety standards (EN 166) to ensure maximum protection, durability, and comfort. Here are some of our top picks for National Eye Safety Awareness Month:

1.⁠ ⁠Clear Lens Safety Glasses: Perfect for indoor tasks, our clear lens safety glasses are a reliable choice for those working in environments where visibility is crucial. Designed to meet EN 166 standards, they offer scratch resistance and a lightweight build, keeping you comfortable throughout your workday.

2.⁠ ⁠UV 400 Protection: For outdoor workers like carpenters and electricians, protecting your eyes from the sun is just as important as guarding against physical hazards. Our glasses with UV 400 protection offer superior shielding from harmful ultraviolet rays, reducing the risk of long-term eye damage caused by extended sun exposure.

3.⁠ ⁠Polarised Safety Glasses: Working outdoors with intense sunlight or glare? Our polarised safety glasses are designed to reduce glare and improve clarity, making them ideal for environments where precision and clear vision are critical. These glasses meet all the necessary safety standards, ensuring your eyes are well-protected, while also providing comfort for long periods of wear.

Comfort and Safety Combined

Our safety glasses don’t just meet the highest safety standards—they’re also designed for comfort. Lightweight, ergonomic, and built with durability in mind, Salus safety glasses are scratch-resistant and made to last. Whether you're on the job for a few hours or a full day, you’ll find our eyewear comfortable and dependable.
