About Shooting Glasses and Eye Protection

How to choose shooting glasses

Choosing the right pair comes down to use case, light conditions, protection level and fit. Use the guide below, then compare specifications on each product page.

Lens colour and light conditions

  • Low light or overcast: yellow, rose or clear lenses can improve contrast.
  • Bright sun: smoke, grey or mirrored lenses can reduce glare while keeping detail clear.
  • Interchangeable lens systems: functional if your day moves between different light conditions.

Protection standards and materials

  • Check for recognised safety or ballistic standards (for example, EN166 or ANSI Z87.1), where stated on the product.
  • Polycarbonate and Trivex are common impact-resistant lens materials.

Fit, coverage and comfort.

  • Adjustable nose pads and flexible arms can help secure fit and reduce pressure points.
  • Wraparound shapes can improve side coverage and help reduce gaps.

Anti-fog and scratch resistance

  • Anti-fog coatings help in cold or wet conditions and during high activity.
  • Use a microfibre cloth and lens-safe cleaner, and store glasses in a protective case.

Prescription compatibility

  • Some models support prescription inserts or clip-in systems. Check each product’s fit notes before purchase.

All Shooting Glasses | Eye Protection FAQs

Common options include wraparound styles for wider coverage, semi-rimless frames for a clearer sight picture, and full-frame designs for everyday durability. Some models also offer interchangeable lenses so you can switch tints as light conditions change.

Many shooting glasses use impact-resistant materials such as polycarbonate or Trivex. Some products are tested to recognised safety or ballistic standards (for example EN166 or ANSI Z87.1). Always check the product specification for the exact rating.

Many models provide UV protection, but coverage varies by product and lens type. Check the product specification to confirm UV-A and UV-B protection.

Clear lenses suit indoor use and low light. Yellow or rose tints can increase contrast in overcast conditions. Smoke, grey or mirrored lenses can reduce glare in bright sun. Interchangeable lens systems are useful if conditions change during the day.

Choose models with anti-fog coatings and ensure a secure fit that still allows airflow. Keep lenses clean with a microfibre cloth and lens-safe cleaner, and avoid touching the inside surface where coatings are applied.

Some shooting glasses support prescription inserts or clip-in systems. If you wear corrective lenses, check the product notes for insert compatibility and sizing before ordering.

Use a microfibre cloth and lens-safe cleaner. Avoid paper towels and harsh chemicals that can damage coatings. Store glasses in a protective case and keep them away from high heat or heavy pressure.

Ballistic or safety-rated shooting glasses are designed and tested for impact protection and may comply with recognised standards. Standard sunglasses may not meet the impact requirements expected for shooting use.
