Rickap7 10 Posted August 5, 2020 Can you use Oakley sun glasses at the indoor range? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr.Stu 1,883 Posted August 5, 2020 You can - but depending on the lighting you may not see much. You can also wear sunglasses in a night club, if you really want to. Seriously though, Oakley do make a range of safety glasses suitable for shooting - but not all their models are rated for that so check the specific pair you want to wear. They are available in a range of tints from clear, through to dark suitable for use in the sunshine. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
revenger 472 Posted August 16, 2020 I use Wiley X prescription with the yellowish lenses, they meet the safety ratings for shooting. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You want single-lens safety glasses (my emphasis added): https://www.luckygunner.com/labs/eye-protection-shooting-glasses-review/ Quote I know that this post has been long, so if you’re looking for a simple takeaway, here it is. Non-ballistic eye protection is fine for keeping relatively slow-moving objects away from your face. Empty cases ejected from a firearm, dirt kicked up by muzzle blast, etc. For faster-moving projectiles such as ricocheted bullets, you need high quality, tested eye pro. I would personally prefer eyewear with a single piece lens for any activity where my face might be struck by small, fast-moving objects. Individual lenses detach from the frames once a certain level of force is reached, and they are driven back into the eye sockets – sometimes at undesirable angles – where considerable damage may be done. There are good two piece lens eye pro out there, like the Smith Optics Director, but single-piece lenses distribute force much better. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
