PROTECT YOUR EYES WHILE WELDING: ESSENTIAL TO PREVENT EYE RISKS

Wearing eye protection while welding helps prevent significant risks of eye injuries caused by welding splashes or grinding particles.

Why is it important to protect your eyes while welding?

During welding activities, you are at risk of retinal burns and arc eye (keratitis) on the cornea. UV/IR radiation is present during welding, and this is what poses a danger to your eyes. Prolonged exposure to this UV radiation can cause the mentioned risks. You can learn more about the processes of electric welding in this article: electric welding processes.

But don’t worry, with the right eye protection, your eyes will be completely safe. Bollé Safety offers a range of solutions tailored for welders.

How to protect your eyes while welding?

To protect your eyes during welding, you must wear proper eye protection.

There are different types of PPE available for welders. Among our selection of products for welding activities, you can find:

• Welding helmets or masks: We offer three welding helmets—FUSION+, FLASH, and VOLT. These helmets have various benefits such as a wide field of vision, ergonomic headbands, modern designs, and advanced filter technologies. Visit the product pages to discover their advantages.
• Welding mask: The UNIVERSAL mask fits perfectly to your face.
• Hybrid welding safety glasses, such as the TRACKER, with its ventilated frame and high impact resistance. Select the Welding lens tint for suitable welding protection.
• Welding over-glasses: A more budget-friendly option. The SQUALE product is ideal for this purpose.

Welding helmets, also called welding masks, not only protect your eyes from splashes but also prevent inhaling potentially toxic dust. A welding helmet protects both eyes and the face as it fully covers the welder's head. This is an essential piece of equipment for welders, and we highly recommend it for professional welders.
