Bifocal Safety Glasses Yellow, Clear and Gray – +1.0 to +3.0

What are the best bifocal safety glasses when you need readers and eye protection at the same time?

If you need safety glasses for work but find yourself constantly reaching for reading glasses to see measurements, labels, tools or small parts, these bifocal safety glasses give you both in one pair.

The main part of the lens stays unmagnified for normal distance viewing. When you need to see something up close, simply look down through the built-in bifocal reading area.

Choose from Clear, Smoke Gray or Yellow lenses and magnification from +1.0 to +3.0 so you can match the glasses to both your work environment and your normal reading strength.

Which lens color should I choose?

Clear Lens – Best for indoor and general-purpose work

Choose Clear when you want maximum available light and a natural view without adding a tint. This is the most versatile choice for indoor work and areas where reducing brightness would make it harder to see what you are doing.

Good for: Workshops, garages, warehouses, assembly work, woodworking, electrical and mechanical projects, manufacturing and other indoor tasks.


Smoke Gray Lens – Best for bright and outdoor work

Choose Smoke Gray when you are working in bright light or outdoors. Gray reduces overall brightness and glare while keeping colors looking relatively natural.

This can be especially useful when you still need the built-in reader but clear safety glasses feel too bright in daylight.

Good for: Outdoor projects, construction, landscaping, yard work, maintenance, bright work areas and jobs around sunlit pavement or other reflective surfaces.


Yellow Lens – Best for overcast, hazy, shaded, or low-contrast lighting

Choose Yellow when lighting is dim, overcast, shaded or visually flat. Yellow lenses can increase perceived contrast and help edges and details stand out more clearly in certain lower-light environments.

Good for: Overcast conditions, shaded work areas, garages, workshops with uneven lighting, inspection work, small parts and detailed tasks where extra visual definition may be helpful.

How do bifocal safety glasses work?

These are different from full-lens reading glasses. Only the lower portion of each lens contains reading magnification.

Look straight ahead through the main lens for your normal-distance view. When you need to read a ruler, check a measurement, see a small screw or read a label, glance down through the bifocal section.

This lets you move between distance and close-up work without constantly taking off your safety glasses and putting on readers.

What kind of work are safety glasses with readers good for?
  • Woodworking and carpentry
  • Automotive and mechanical work
  • Electrical work and reading small labels
  • Construction and maintenance
  • Manufacturing and assembly
  • Workshop and garage projects
  • Reading rulers, gauges and measurements
  • Working with screws, hardware and small parts
  • Crafts and detailed hobbies
  • Reading instructions or equipment settings while working
Which bifocal magnification should I choose?

Choose from:

+1.0 | +1.5 | +2.0 | +2.5 | +3.0

If you already use over-the-counter reading glasses comfortably, your usual reader strength is a good starting point. The magnification applies only to the lower bifocal area. The rest of the lens remains unmagnified.

Can I still see normally through the rest of the lens?

Yes. The large upper portion of the lens has no reading magnification, so you can use it for your normal view while you work.

The magnified section is there only when you glance downward for close-up tasks.

Are these actual safety glasses?

Yes. The SB-9000 is protective bifocal safety eyewear rated by the manufacturer to ANSI Z87+. The wraparound design also provides more side coverage than a typical pair of reading glasses.

Are they comfortable for longer projects?

The SB-9000 has a lightweight wraparound, semi-rimless design with a rubber nose bridge and rubberized temple ends for a more secure and comfortable fit while you work.

What size are the bifocal safety glasses?

Lens width: 66 mm / 2.60″
Bridge: 16 mm / 0.63″
Temple length: 120 mm / 4.72″
Overall frame width: approximately 142 mm / 5.59″
Lens height: approximately 40 mm / 1.57″

Which combination should I order?

Start by choosing the lens that matches where you expect to use the glasses most often:

Clear – Indoor and general-purpose work

Smoke Gray – Bright and outdoor environments

Yellow – Lower, shaded, overcast or flat-light environments

Then select the magnification closest to the reading strength you normally use.
