There is no mention anywhere of whether or not these glasses offer UV protection! Are they merely for shop safety? Or do they offer UV protection?

Yes. The tinting is that "smoke" sun glasses. They do not work well at night, however.

Not much really, they're not as yellow as the Gunnars brand, or any other regular yellow tint glasses you may see on retail stores(aviator/law enforcement style if you know what I mean). That being said, the yellow has to do with the protective effect of the glasses I assume. If you're worried about looks and appearances, I've never had anyone make fun of or geeking out over the glasses, I got asked a few times what type of glasses was I wearing when I wore my Gunnars ( more noticeably yellow tint ) but that was it. In the end, is the appearance more important? or your eyesight health?

they are very flimsy (as in thin and wobbly, not that they will fall apart) , and there was no label indicating UV resistant or what not, but i don't see why not.

Here is the response from LensDirect.com: Yes they do provide 100% UVA and UVB protection.

I'm sorry; I do not know positively. I do know that glasses the are designed to be used in restaurants are usually "Dura Tuff" treated. These state that they are "restaurant quality", so let's assume they are treated. To be positive, I'd contact Libbey.

They are for viewing red laser under bright light conditions. There is a warning not to look into laser or sun so I do not think so. Polarized glasses are for what you describe.

I don't know if they are UV protected material. They block out the sun great. On hot days we close them when the sun is the brightest most days we just leave them opened with the shear part hanging down and it works great keeping the sun out. Not sure about your sliding glass door question sorry.

Good question. We've had these for a while now, but when I read the question I had to go check. So I just checked and in fact, NO they DO NOT. Still, we do love these glasses!!!

I dont have an answer for that, I dont think these were designed for night driving. They are generally for use with high intensity UV ray, for protection.

They block and protect your eyes when using Black Light/UV. They would only enhance when using the "light" as far as contrast on urine.

Sorry I was confused with something else. These safety glasses work fine for me.

It is up to you and your prescription lens provider. You can add UV protection to the clear lens when you order them. I did not as I assumed I would have the sunglasses "down" most of the time. I do add UV protection to my normal glasses that I wear every day.

I'm sorry to say that I have no idea. I have many pairs of glasses and all offer protection from UV rays.

Jeff, I have owned these glasses for about 3 months now. They work well for me in my shop as I transition from inside to outside. I wear them with the tether that came with them so they really don't get scratched the way I have them around my neck when not on my face. They have held up well and I would recommend them. I thought I saw some where in the ad or paperwork that they do have a scratch resistant coating but not 100% sure.

I don't know what the UV Rating is. I also checked with the distributor and their site only states ultimate UV protection. I can tell you I've been wearing them for 3 yrs now while golfing and my arms are not tanned at all.

These are wonderful especially for us glass wearers. They block the sun from all over, even from the sides. I bought a pair to keep in each car and my friend who is (was a long time ago) a red head and light complected and very sensitive to sun found these glasses to be great and he doesn't wear them over glasses. I'd give it a try and see what you think. I think you'll be happy. John

You would have to ask the manufacturer. They claim to block the UV rays but I am no expert and certainly not the right person to answer this for you. I would hope that they were not falsely advertising that feature, but I am going to assume at the very least that they help regardless.
