A new type of safety eyewear has
been unveiled by safety equipment
specialist uvex. The ‘super fit
variomatic’ darkens within seconds
of exposure to UV light, while
quickly reverting to its former state
as UV light is reduced. This allows
the wearer to move safely from
indoors to outdoors and back again
wearing the same pair of specs.

The uvex super fit eyewear is said
to afford the wearer a high level of
comfort and clear vision. Features
include a double-sided scratchresistant
lens coating, secure fit and
sporty, lightweight design.

The hard-wearing specs are
available in a choice of frame colours
and lens options that allow differing
levels of light transmission,
depending on whether most of the
work takes place indoors or outdoors.

Graham Abbott, sales director,
comments: “The simple idea of
safety specs with light sensitive lenses
takes the hassle out of moving
between different environments,
while at the same time protecting
staff from potential hazards to the
health of their eyes.”
