Foam vs. No Foam
With foam padding — EVA foam gasket seals against wind, dust, and debris. Best for dusty job sites, outdoor work, and motorcycle riding where elements are a factor.
Without foam padding — lighter and more breathable for standard workplace and indoor use.
Which Magnification Should I Choose?
Choose the same strength as your current reading glasses. A general guide: +1.50 for mild reading difficulty, +2.00 for moderate, +2.50 or +3.00 for stronger magnification needs. When in doubt start lower — you can always go stronger.
Also Available in the Hercules Series

Frequently Asked Questions
Are these OSHA compliant? Yes — ANSI Z87.1 certified for workplace and industrial use.
What is the difference between the bifocal and non-bifocal Hercules? The Hercules Bifocal has a built-in reading magnification zone at the bottom of the lens. The standard Hercules has no magnification but offers a wider range of lens tints and options including photochromic.
Are these anti-fog? Yes — the Hercules Bifocal lenses have an anti-fog coating to maintain clear vision in temperature-variable conditions.
Does the foam padding affect the bifocal? No — the foam padding seals around the outside of the frame without affecting the lens or bifocal zone.
Cleaning Spits Eyewear safety glasses is essential to keep them in good condition and maintain their effectiveness. First, rinse the glasses with cold or warm water to remove dust or dirt. Next, apply a small amount of dish soap on both sides of the lenses and rub them gently with your fingers. Rinse the glasses with water again and pat dry with a microfiber cloth. Avoid using hot water, abrasive cleaners, or tissues to clean safety glasses; they can damage the lenses and reduce their effectiveness. Repeat this process regularly to ensure clear vision and long-lasting safety.
