Uvex Skyper Blue Light Blocking Safety Glasses

Uvex Skyper Blue Light Blocking Safety Glasses

The Uvex Skyper S1933X is a full-frame wraparound safety glass with an SCT-Orange lens that blocks more than 98% of blue light in the 400–500nm range. The Skyper is designed for workers exposed to blue light sources in industrial environments — including LED lighting, UV mercury vapor lamps, and intense computer display use — where prolonged blue light exposure is a concern. ANSI Z87+ certified, the Skyper is fully compliant with regulated industrial, construction, and laboratory jobsite requirements while providing the spectral filtering performance of professional blue light eyewear. The Skyper uses a replaceable lens system (compatible with S6500X replacement lenses) and features an adjustable 3-position ratcheting lens inclination, Duoflex cushioned temple tips, and a molded-in nose bridge and browguard.

Key Features

• ANSI Z87+ Certified — Meets ANSI/ISEA Z87.1 high-impact standard for use in regulated industrial, laboratory, and construction environments. The S1933X is a true industrial safety glass, not a consumer product marketed as safety eyewear.
• SCT-Orange Lens — 98%+ Blue Light Blocking — Spectrum Control Technology (SCT) filters the 400–500nm blue wavelength range, absorbing more than 98% of incident blue light. Designed for environments with LED, UV, or high-intensity screen light sources where unfiltered blue light exposure is a documented concern.
• Full-Frame Wraparound Design with Browguard — The uni-lens design wraps around the orbital area providing side and peripheral protection. The molded-in browguard and sideshields are integrated into the frame, eliminating separate attachment accessories.
• 3-Position Ratcheting Lens Inclination — The ratcheting lens angle adjustment allows three distinct inclination positions to optimize lens angle for facial geometry and work position, without requiring tools.
• Adjustable Duoflex Cushioned Temples — Temple tips use Duoflex cushioning material for improved comfort during extended wear. Temple length adjusts to accommodate different head sizes.
• Molded-In Nose Bridge — The fixed molded nose bridge maintains consistent lens positioning without adjustment hardware. Eliminates the mechanical complexity and failure points of adjustable nose systems.
• Replaceable Lens System — Compatible with S6500X replacement lens inserts, allowing lens replacement without frame replacement when lens surfaces become scratched or degraded.
• Uvextreme Anti-Fog Coating — Anti-fog treated polycarbonate lens resists fogging in temperature transitions, high-humidity conditions, and active work environments.

SCT-Orange Lens Applications

The SCT-Orange lens is selected for environments where blue wavelength filtering is the primary requirement:

• LED and Fluorescent Lighting: Modern LED and fluorescent lighting emit concentrated blue wavelengths. The SCT-Orange lens reduces blue light dose for workers in facilities with extended shifts under high-output LED installations.
• UV Mercury Vapor Environments: UV mercury vapor lamps (used in curing, printing, and photolithography) emit significant ultraviolet and near-UV blue light. The SCT-Orange lens provides substantial filtration in these environments alongside the standard UV protection common to all polycarbonate safety lenses.
• Computer and Display Work: Workers with extended screen-facing time in industrial control rooms, data centers, and quality inspection stations benefit from the blue light reduction during long shifts.
• General Orange-Lens Applications: The orange tint also enhances contrast in low-light and overcast outdoor conditions, similar to other amber/orange lens safety eyewear used in outdoor and variable-light work environments.

Compliance

ANSI/ISEA Z87.1 certified for high-impact (Z87+) eye protection. Suitable for industrial, laboratory, construction, and outdoor work where blue light exposure reduction and ANSI-compliant impact protection are required simultaneously.
