So here is my quandary. These old eyes have gotten where I can't see fine work with out my readers. Yesterday I am in the shop and grinding at a small radius and the grit from the wheel I was using more or less explodes into my face. My glasses had slid down a bit and the grit gets under or over my glasses. My intent was to remove my glasses and try and brush the grit from my face. However I blinked about that time and ...................... the grit was then in my left eye!
First let me say that no matter the time of year I am one of those people who can fog up anything that encloses my face. Sometimes it causes me problems welding!!!:31:
I have tried the safety glasses that seal against your face and it is a constant battle with them fogging up and I can't see what I am doing!!!
I used to use a full face shield but, in no time it seemed they get so scratched, plus sometimes I have to fight the fog up battle, and then I can't see through them!
I have spent today with a miserable eye and unable to get back to the shop! I think I got all the grit out but not before it has scratched my eye!!
So here is the questions how do those of you need glasses to see, manage the eye protection with them??? If you are one of those with the fogging problem then you have an idea of what I am going thru. I would love to hear how you are handling this problem. You can't grind what you can't see but, I don't need anymore damage to my eyes. I am open to all suggestions and information you might have on the subject!!
