I should have added a qualifier on to the "just don't get". I can't handle walking around with them on, but seated they do fine. Bifocal ones I will wear to the store and tend to just keep them on around the house.
There is at least 1 company making bifocal safety glasses that have the magnifiers in the top half of the lens for overhead work like a vehicle on the rack.
Eye Pro Channel.
All Eye Pro, All The Time.
If I'm doing anything, or sometimes nothing, I'm wearing it. For sure when doing anything reloading. To do otherwise is to say "I know for a fact nothing can go wrong here, in fact I'd bet my vision on it".
I get my glasses at Safetyglassesusa.com, you can get some very good stuff not too expensive, plus you can get a lot of them as sunglasses and with various bifocal magnifiers because I am getting, I mean in case any of you should get, old. Full disclosure, I know the owner there although I have not seen him or talked to him for years..... I just know him. Vet owned biz that happens to be in my home town. Now they're doing coffee too and it's good.
I know several guys that run these. https://www.amazon.com/StickTite-Sun...xpY2s9dHJ1ZQ== They have safety glasses they really like but the glasses lack magnification.
Eye protection without exception, and only a fool does not. No ear protection though along with good grade mechanics nitrile gloves I get for free from work.
Ear protection, no. I've worn glasses since I was 7, as an adult have always had shatter resistant lenses. It's not full osha shop eye protection, as there are no side shields, but there's something in front of my eyes.
I wouldn't see good enough to do it without them.
