Police and first responders face an increasing risk from handheld laser pointers during protests and public events. These compact devices have become powerful enough to inflict serious eye injuries, making eye protection essential. Exposure to these lasers without proper safeguards can lead to significant damage, including the risk of blindness.

Why Do Police Need Specialized Laser Safety Glasses?

Lasers available to the public come in red, green, and blue, with green being the most common. Each color poses different risks, and effective protection requires glasses equipped with filters that match the laser’s color spectrum. For instance, yellow filters block blue lasers, while blue filters are designed to block red lasers, ensuring effective protection. The retina, crucial for processing visual information, is especially susceptible to laser damage.

The retina comprises rods and cones: rods are responsible for low-light vision, and cones are essential for color vision. Our laser safety glasses, though similar in appearance to sunglasses, offer superior protection while maintaining visibility in low-light conditions, making them suitable for both indoor and nighttime use.
