Radiation Protection Eyewear

Leaded eyewear is vital in every department where radiation is used, especially in the Cath and EP labs where 95% of the staff are exposed to radiation during each and every procedure. Your eyes are four-times more sensitive to radiation than the rest of your body according to the National Radiation Commission and The Joint Commission.

There is a wide variety of premium lead eyewear, including: glasses, prescription eyewear, goggles, fitovers and face shields. Features include head straps, prescriptions upgrades, side shield protection and chemical resistance.
