With the same commanding presence as the popular Conqueror® safety glasses, Conqueror MAG is sleek, stylish bifocal eye protection that meets the needs of workers who are working with small print or performing other detailed tasks. Bifocal safety eyewear prevents workers from switching between regular safety glasses and reading glasses, a dangerous maneuver that can result in errors and eye injuries.

According to the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, heat is the number one weather-related killer in the United States. You don’t have to tell workers during this record heat wave of 2012 that wearing uncomfortable, hot safety helmets on the jobsite can literally make them sick.
