SMITHFIELD, R.I., Aug. 11, 2011 — Laser pointer beams cause distracting glare and pose a temporary flash blindness hazard to pilots and security personnel. As laser attacks on aircraft are doubling each year worldwide, with helicopter and civilian pilots at a higher risk, Sperian Protection is offering its Laser-Gard aviator eyewear to provide more protection than high-end designer sunglasses selling at the same price.
Although high-quality sunglasses provide UV and glare protection, the company’s expertise in combining narrowband notch laser dyes produces the ultimate in safety eyewear, designed specifically for personnel who may be exposed to laser pointers.
The company’s experience in manufacturing laser visors for the US Air Force has resulted in a product that reduces the threat posed by today’s powerful green and red laser pointers.
Available in a choice of frame styles and featuring multiple adjustments for comfort, the patented lenses are available in two versions to ensure that pilots and law enforcement personnel are protected around the clock: soothing bronze-colored sunglass tint for daytime and a salmon-colored lens that provides good nighttime vision.
Laser-Gard combines laser protection with traffic signal color recognition and comfort, making it possible for anyone exposed to lasers to do a job safely and effectively.
