Your eyes are particularly vulnerable to scatter radiation during fluoroscopic and interventional procedures. Leaded glasses provide essential protection without compromising clarity or comfort. Our radiation protection eyewear comes in multiple frame styles, lens options, and lead equivalencies, so you can choose the perfect fit for your role and environment.

Glasses also come with lens options. Anti-Fog Coating  is especially helpful in environments where temperature fluctuations occur or when wearing a mask for long periods—common in interventional suites. The anti-fog coating helps prevent your lenses from fogging up, maintaining clear vision throughout your procedures without the need to constantly adjust or wipe them. The Anti-Reflective (AR) Coating option reduces glare from overhead lighting and monitors, improving visual clarity and reducing eye strain. It’s ideal if you're working under bright procedure lights or regularly shifting between looking at imaging screens and the operative field.

Which should you choose? If you frequently deal with fogging issues (especially while masked), anti-fog is a great option. If you’re more concerned about glare or eye fatigue from bright environments or long hours, anti-reflective would likely be more beneficial. Some of our premium models even offer both coatings for maximum performance.
