How to choose
Start with the hazard. For dust, chips and flying particles, an open spectacle such as the ES001, ES005, ES017 or Frontier FT101 is enough. For liquid or chemical splashes, choose a sealed goggle with a soft PVC rim, such as the ES008, ES009, Frontier FT121 or FT161, which closes the gap around the eyes. Where the whole face is at risk, from splashes, debris or grinding, use a face shield such as the ES51 or ES52, or a Frontier FT171 visor on a cap frame.
For welding and hot work, the lens must filter infrared light. The ES003 has an IR-5 lens for gas welding, furnaces and molten metal; the ES004 goggle has an IR-11 window for electric arc welding that flips up for a clear view between welds. The IR number is the shade of the filter: the higher the number, the darker the lens. The ES61 and helmet mountable ES71 welding shields are stated to EN 175:1997, the European standard for eye and face protection during welding. Check the shade your welding process calls for before you order.
Then check the standards your site asks for. EN 166 is the European standard for personal eye protection, and most Karam models here are stated to EN 166:2001. Several also carry IS 8521(Part1):2022 and conform to ANSI Z 87.1, the American standard for eye and face protection. EN 170 covers ultraviolet filters and EN 172 sunglare filters; Karam lists these on some models. Optical class 1, listed on many lenses, is the top optical quality class under EN 166 and suits all-day wear.
Finally, think about fit and comfort. Workers who wear prescription glasses can use the ES007 or Frontier FT141 over-spectacles, or goggles that fit over glasses such as the ES008, ES009, FT131 and FT161. Anti-fog lenses (ES017, ES018, ES019, ES009, FT121) help in humid or misty conditions, and adjustable temples or headbands give a steadier fit.
