Clear vision without dazzle
25 September 2014
The issue of glare in the workplace is often under-estimated, but glare can be very disabling and even dangerous. Too much light can make it harder to see, and glare can lead to impaired vision, loss of contrast, eyestrain, squinting, pain, and uncomfortable and watering eyes.
To help solve this problem, uvex has designed the uvex i-3 AR (Anti-Reflective) safety spectacle, which features uvex permanent anti-reflective coating on both sides of the lens, giving the wearer clear vision without dazzle.
Winner of a 'Special Mention' in the German Design Awards 2014, the uvex i-3 AR eliminates glare from bright lights or reflected light from wet, white or shiny surfaces.
Suitable for use in many industries, the spectacle has already proved a hit for forklift truck drivers in the indoor warehouses of a global consumer goods company, where it combats reflection from lighting hitting shrink wrapped pallets.
Additional features of the lightweight, metal-free, uvex i-3 AR, such as a side arm flex zone, variable side arms, soft flex temple ends and soft, adjustable, nose bridge pads, enable a good individual fit and ensure optimum protection, comfort and security throughout the working day.
