Protecting your eyes isn’t optional—it’s essential. At Laramie Peak Vision, we fit and dispense safety eyewear that meets rigorous industry standards while keeping comfort and style in mind. Whether you’re on a jobsite, in a lab, behind a lathe, or tackling weekend projects at home, our opticians can help you choose protective glasses that match your work, your prescription, and your budget. Below is a guide to the frame options we carry, the impact-rated lenses available, and the most common occupational uses we support every day in the clinic.
Frame Options
Wraparound frames extend protection beyond the front of the eye, using curved side coverage to help block debris approaching from an angle. They’re lightweight, low-profile under hard hats or welding caps, and a great pick for dusty environments or fast-moving particles.
For environments with fine particulates, chemical splash, or high wind, a foam or silicone gasket creates a close seal around the orbit. Many models are vented to reduce fogging without compromising protection. These are popular in fabrication shops, labs, and agricultural settings.
If you prefer a classic look, we stock ANSI-rated frames with detachable or integrated side shields. This style is ideal for administrative staff who periodically enter production areas, or anyone who wants a more “everyday eyewear” appearance with certified protection.
We’ll help you pick the right chassis for your work. Spring-hinge metal frames provide durability and a secure fit; flexible nylon or TR-90 frames resist chemicals and hold up to heat and impact. Many models include adjustable nose pads and temple tips to fine-tune comfort for long shifts.
We dispense lenses that meet or exceed the ANSI Z87.1 standard for impact resistance. You’ll see this marking on the lenses and frames so supervisors and safety officers can verify compliance at a glance.
Polycarbonate and Trivex are the go-to materials for safety eyewear because they’re inherently impact-resistant and lighter than standard plastic or glass. Trivex also offers excellent optical clarity with minimal distortion, which can reduce eye strain during precision work.
Coatings for real-world conditions
From distance-only to lined bifocals and progressives, we fabricate safety lenses that match your prescription and working distances. We can even customize reading zone placement for workers who frequently look up to instrument panels or down to benchtop layouts.
Carpentry, masonry, electrical, roofing, and HVAC—each trade faces different hazards. We outfit workers with wraparound or side-shielded frames, often paired with anti-fog coatings for sweaty, high-exertion tasks and photochromic lenses for outdoor variability.
From CNC to manual lathes and mills, metal and plastic chips demand robust impact resistance and close coverage. Many machinists prefer full-seal frames with anti-fog lenses to maintain clarity around cutting fluids and coolants.
Chemical splash, bio-aerosols, and quick temperature changes make gasketed frames and anti-fog coatings essential. For clinicians who need sharp near vision, we tailor progressive or occupational bifocal layouts to typical working distances at the bench or hood.
Dust, wind, and UV exposure are constant. Lightweight wraparound frames with polarized or photochromic lenses are popular with operators moving between barns, open fields, and equipment cabs.
Workers need durable materials that play well with hard hats, face shields, and hearing protection. We ensure proper PPE integration and can add straps or retentive temples for elevated or confined-space work.
Impact-rated eyewear with excellent peripheral vision is crucial for dynamic scenarios. We offer low-profile frames that fit under helmets and maintain secure, fog-free vision through rapid temperature changes.
We don’t just sell a frame—we verify coverage, adjust for comfort, and confirm compatibility with your other PPE.
On-site opticians and modern lens designs ensure you see clearly while staying protected.
From measurements to delivery and adjustments, we keep the process simple and convenient.

My son had an eye emergency and our regular vision clinic wasn’t staffed with a doctor that day. Laramie Peak got us in immediately, got us right back, and Dr. Howell was able to remove the foreign object from my son’s eye with precision, confidence, and great bed side manner.I was so impressed and my 8 year old was too. He now tells everyone about the “cool eye doctor” who cared for him with and about how nice the doctor was. We have been considering switching vision clinics for a while now and Dr. Howell and Laramie Peak Vision just cemented that decision!Posted on Google Kayla MarroquinTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr. Howell was amazing! He took the time to explain everything thoroughly and was very easy to work with.Posted on Google Charlotte GrooseTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr Howell is amazing! He gave me the best eye exam that I ever had! I never felt rushed. He took the time explain what he was doing and why. Instead of just suggesting some expensive eye drops for dry eyes he took the time to give me a plan for actually resolving the issue. The front desk staff and technicians were great to work with. I had an excellent experience here and highly recommend Laramie Peak Vision.Posted on Google Maddison ClarkTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

First time here and honestly, what a great experience. The staff is so genuinely nice, the atmosphere is cozy and clean, and Dr. Howell is a 10/10 doctor. He answered every question I had, was patient with my son during his initial check-up (he had lots of questions too), and addressed any/every concern I had. So happy to have found this gem.
Our opticians check brow/cheek coverage, temple alignment, and compatibility with your hard hat, earmuffs, or respirator.
If your employer or site safety plan requires them, choose an ANSI frame with integrated or detachable side shields to stay compliant.
Rinse off dust, then use lens cleaner and a microfiber cloth. Avoid dry-wiping gritty lenses and store them in a protective case.
We can position near/intermediate zones for your specific tasks (e.g., benchtop work or overhead panels).
