 Great Idea, Needs a Little Tweaking for me thoughJul 26, 2006
By Mark H
I've never seen bifocal safety glasses before and liked the idea. It was a huge shock to glance at the tape measure and be able to read it without straining. They work great. My only issue is that, in my opinion, the magnified portion could be a little smaller. When in use, I find myself trying to slide them down slightly so that I'm not looking through the line between the magnified and clear sections when doing anything else besides reading.

 Makita bifocal glassesAug 13, 2007
By Rochelle Mozlin
this is an excellent product. I actually use them bicycling so I can read the map and the bike computer.I bought them in smoke and clear and use the clear on cloudy days. They are a tiny bit large for my head and I have a slightly larger than average head. So if you have a small head they may be too big for you.

 Great idea poor executionMay 25, 2008
By jimbo
The basic idea of adding the bifocal lens to the glases is good and useful. However, in these glasses, the bifocal lens takes up way too much vertical field of view, so you are constantly looking through the bifocals when you don't want to, producing a slight blur to your vision. Consequently you find yourself making little 'adjustments' frequently - shifting your view up or down. After a while this is a pain in the neck.

 Don't Meet Safety Standards?Jun 03, 2010
By 1Sunbum
As a contact lens wearer I've become a fan of protective eyewear with built-in bifocal lenses (MSA Safety Works 10061646 Bifocal Safety Glasses, 2.0 Diopeter). These were a nice discovery in a sunglass since they have UV protection and I liked the design. The tint is effective in bright sunlight but not too dark.
Their effectiveness as "protective safety glasses" is questionable. The lenses are marked for the diopter but not for any safety standard such as ANSI or OSHA, kind of surprising considering the Dewalt brand. I dropped them once and the lens scratched much too easily in my opinion, adding to my concern about lens quality.
They are fairly comfortable for me, but the earpieces don't fit very securely; I find them easily knocked off. I like that the bifocal area of the lens is not visible from the front and the diopter seems as marked, but I wish the bifocal area was a bit lower & smaller; it interferes with my "normal" field of vision to the point where it's annoying.
I wouldn't count on them for serious protection since they don't meet any safety standards. I decided I prefer Stick On Bifocals (OPTX 20/20 Stick-On Bifocals, +2.00) on a pair of tinted MSA ANSI-compliant safety glasses over these. I think MSA safety glasses are better made and finished, more scratch resistant and fit me better.
