Goggles for treework

[White Noise]

Hi all sorry if this has been covered already . As I cut my Cornea 4 days ago due to a gust of wind blowing sawdust in my eyes . At the time I was wearing Stihl glasses and had my mesh visor down . These last few days have been painful . I am sure I saw somewhere on here an article or another post on googles ? . Does anybody else use them pros and cons please ?

I suffered badly this week with sore eyes and it's not whilst cutting, it's just rubbing your forehead or eye brows after, you get an avalanche of sawdust in your eyes

Dean I tell you its been bloody horrible . I know what you mean about all that dust going in your eyes . Ive just been checking out snowboarding goggles and lightweight safety goggles. Just I seem to remember a fellow arbtalker using some .

Might have a go at them myself, what a good idea

had a pair in the truck for years, £40 from a ski shop job done. you can only really wear goggles on a windy day as they steam up otherwise, but they are amazing when it is windy because you can actually see how cool it looks cutting through stuff rather than closing your eyes or looking away lol

 

oh and you have to breath down the way out your mouth so you look a bit silly ha ha

had some uvex goggles for anglegrinding, like ski goggles, they were brilliant and never steamed up, might get some more for windy days as had a bit of sawdust get past my bolle shades and visor last year and give me a splinter inside my eyelid..

We sell a few of the Stihl Ultrasonic goggles and don't get any complaints about them steaming up. We had one guy that now after a bad eye infection won't use anything else.

Thanks for all the the feedback I have seen some on the net advertised as ultra slim gogles to keep out small debri and dust particles ? Think I will check out some of the stuff you guys mentioned on here . Thanks again
