Lead Glasses

[jwalker12]

I ordered some lead glasses and I am not sure if it is the make I ordered or if all lead glasses are this way but for some reason they decrease my visual acuity whenever I wear them. They are not prescription as I dont wear prescription glasses. Is this something all of them do or should I return and order a different type? thanks everyone

They definitely should not impact your vision negatively at all. Are they fogging up? I use anti- fog wipes every day with the

I had some non-prescription lead glasses and I swear they changed my vision ever so slightly to the point that it was distracting and I have never tried another pair since then. I would love some recommendations for some that are crystal clear and don't change vision at all.

You have a specific anti-fog wipe that works well for you? I just bought an anti-fog spray 2 days ago that doesn't seem to do very much on my lead glasses.

sprays always seem to be less effective for me.

none are great, but the one that works the best of the ones i have tried is this:

Toothpaste on the lens is an old military dive secret I was taught. It works 50% of the time, and I need to start using lead glasses.

Anyone have any lead glasses they have been pleased with?

I have a pair of Nike frames from universal med that I like. Also have a pair of Costas that I ordered from VS eyewear. Like them both. Check out their websites they have a lot of options to pick from

I have a pair of Nikes that I’ve liked. Can’t remember where I bought from. Having said that the Little screws holding the ear piece to the rest of the frames are breaking. I e had them for 4 years

Can't link to Amazon directly, but I got a pair of "Leaded Glasses Radiation Safety Eyewear Model Psr-500" there.

They have little side shields to help with scatter. I obviously put them under the c-arm before wearing them to ensure that they were actually radioopaque since I assume most Amazon stuff is cheap Chinese garbage. These passed the c-arm test and actually appear to be made in America.

$140
