Your tool kit might be packed with the latest gear, but your eyes are the one tool you can’t replace.
August is Tradies National Health Month, making it the perfect time to stop putting up with scratched, foggy, or uncomfortable eye protection on the job.
If you’ve ever found yourself squinting through dust, wiping fog off cheap plastic safety glasses, or trying to stack protective goggles over your everyday glasses—we hear you. That’s why we are calling time on sub-par eye protection.
Why Your Everyday Glasses Don’t Cut It on Site
Standard prescription glasses are designed for everyday life, not high-speed debris, ricocheting materials, or impact.
Standard lenses can shatter upon impact, causing severe harm, and they lack side-shield protection against wind, fine dust, and stray flying particles.
Good safety specs are engineered from impact-resistant materials designed to take a beating, and are certified to Australian safety standards.


Upgrade to SafeStyle
SafeStyle, is an Aussie brand that has proved safety glasses don’t have to look terrible.
Designed to offer maximum protection without sacrificing comfort, style and appeal, SafeStyle has become the go-to frame for tradies.
Here’s why you’ll love them:
Full Prescription Integration:
Whether you need single vision or progressive/multifocal lenses, our optometrists tailor your exact prescription directly into certified SafeStyle frames.
Polarised and Sunglass Options:
Working outside? You can get your prescription SafeStyle glasses as sunglasses with dark or polarised UV400 lenses to eliminate glare.
Certified Protection:

They look like high-end casual eyewear. You get maximum protection without looking like you stepped out of a science lab.
