Would these glasses be good for woodworking? Any room for materials to get into eyes?

I've been using these for various things including cutting drywall and using a table saw to cut 2x4's for various purposes. It will stop things from flying directly into your eyes and causing damage, but finer particles will still somehow float behind the glasses and happily irritate the hell out of you. I find I can get by if I just squint and every now and then rub my eyes after a cut. However, if I was doing a lot more cutting, I'd probably want fully enclosed glasses.

I think they would do that purpose. You can tilt glasses towards your cheeks (they have a hinge for that movement).They are not goggles which would avoid dust. I like them, the only thing i did not like was they get easily scratched, pretty much as all safety lenses.I found another brand that are more scratch resistant and I prefer them. Hope this helps to your question.

You can, just like any pair of glasses. But I would not expect these glasses to protect my eyes. I doubt that they are rated as safety glasses.

I think any pair of saftey glasses will do but these might be your best bet for the fact that they fit snug yet comfy. So i dont think any liquid will be in contact with your eyes. Ive had mine for almost a yr and still going strong. I recommend buying a retainer from walmart in the fishing department to avoid scratches. About $3

No. These glasses are extremely poor quality. I wore them once and returned them because they feel so plasticky and about to break. I recommend against them. Good luck

Hello. Yes, they are perfect for eyeglasses. That was my reason for purchasing this.

The safety glasses are much closer to your eyes and it has also the side shields. During wood work, some small wood chips can bounce and fly under the shield, and the glasses protect your eyes.

I've used them extensively doing work both inside and out. They are excellent when it comes to keeping debris out of your eyes, even small dust from wood and fiberglass. Since it's been very cold up here in the North East, outside work requires some adjustments to the heat and cold changes; sometimes they fog up for a bit until they acclimate. Great glasses, I've been through a number of different kinds, but these are a keeper.

They are not used for wood. They are best used for machinist work but will also serve well for items like grout removal.

I did only use them on glass and they worked fine. I can't be sure, but I don't think they'll work on wood.

Yes. These are a welding glasses, but yet still offer a visual contrast to 'daylight'. I use them as conversation starters. See my other reviews. have fun!

Unfortunately, no. And, they're good glasses for shooting, but if you wear glasses, your frame can't be too big.

yes, these glasses work great for reducing eye strain in any situation. I've had mine for several months now and I am very satisfied with them.

Sure but it might be a bit of overkill for sanding wood. A half-face unit and safety glasses would probably be more comfortable. A hobbyist would probably me just fine with using the disposable, paper masks. It depends on just how much dust is in the air and for how long but I dont think a full face respirator is really necessary unles you need to keep fumes out of your eyes.

I use them for driving but I do not see why they could not be used for any glasses. I doubt you would see much difference using them for reading. Blue blockers are most effective when they filter out the blue in outdoor vision.

I think they would work fine for lights. I thought I would try them for that purpose since they didn't work so well for puppet eyes.

I don't think so, these have been really great glasses. Libbey is a great brand :)

Hello! I love these glasses and use them when I drive from work in the mornings. I have no trouble wearing them inside at work and homes, but as they are sunglasses I can't see well wearing them outside at night. Hope this helps!
