Ballistic rated glasses are more for bullets that are fragmenting next to you going into ur eye balls. Or explosives explosions doing the same thing. Frag goes everywhere.

[@kanthonyinc]

Great job explaining

[@aceflores7436]

Rob my kore sunglasses are ballistic and ansi rated and stronger than my old oakley and wileys so I am covered.

[@sportrxeyewear]

Nice! It sounds like you're all set, then!

[@pablomartinezl.2403]

How can you tell apart ballistic Glasses from other products? Thank you.

[@sportrxeyewear]

[@frankg8861]

Do people wear these at an indoor range? Or is that considered overkill?

[@krisgee9553]

How important are your eyes? Doesn't really matter what other people think. Accidents can happen and better safe than sorry when it comes to my vision.

[@mightymochi6320]

Let me put it this way. You'd be stupid not to wear them.

[@joel553009]

always wear them. had my suppressor blow off my gun because i forgot to lock it(dont really ever recall not locking it). Everything was fine but it blew so much gas into my face i got covered with black carbon.

[@gunngin3586]

For airsoft/paintball is ansi enough or should i go for the ballistic rating?

[@sportrxeyewear]

These would be GREAT for airsoft/paintball! If you like how they look, then you should reach out to our opticians and we can make sure you get set up with the right pair. 888-831-5817

I've used regular old ansi safety glasses for airsoft and been fine

[@angryagain68]

Demonstrations ?

[@bmaxse]

So is there any ANSI rating or similar testing standards designation for "ballistic" ? So just because any a brand/manufacturer/sales listing says it's "ballistic", then we are supposed to have full confidence that it is "4x" stronger than "ANSI"?

[@Rafael_R]

There's MIL rating. Such as MIL-STD-810, MIL-PRF 31013 or MIL-DTL 43511D. Those account for heavier particles going at higher speeds.

[@raym7291]

sorry guys I had the wileys but my new kore recon are def much better.

[@sportrxeyewear]

We're glad you found something that works well for you!

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hey Dinoh! Unfortunately that is correct. If you are looking for a ballistic rated Oakley, you can check out the Shocktube SI: www.sportrx.com/oakley-shocktube-si-ballistic.html.

[@RyanTomScott]

@@sportrxeyewear I order the shocktube with prescription lenses, are they ballistic rated?
