Safety Glasses Work Better with Earmuffs

I always wear safety glasses and over-the-ear hearing protection when using machinery in my shop. But there are two problems with this safety combination. The arms that hook over your ears break the seal between your skin and the hearing protection, and that means that they don’t protect your hearing as well as they could. Second, the earmuffs are constantly pressing against the arms of the glasses, pushing them against your head. That starts to hurt after a while. Both of these problems are solved by SoundVision safety glasses from FullPro. These glasses don’t have rigid arms that hook over your ears. Instead, there is a hook-and-loop strap on each side that latches onto a mating pad that you stick to the outside of your ear muffs. The result is improved comfort and better hearing protection.
