Palmero Healthcare introduces Provision New Safety Eyewear

Nine unique styles are designed to protect against spray and splatter and eliminate blue light exposure.

Palmero Healthcare, the leader in dental safety eyewear and a Hu-Friedy subsidiary, introduces the Provision® New Safety Eyewear, nine unique styles that serve dental professionals and patients on multiple levels.

Dental professionals continually perform tasks placing them and their patients at risk for exposure to blood, saliva and respiratory droplets. Palmero’s Provision New Safety Eyewear reportedly protects against spray, splash and splatter for infection control; eliminates blue light exposure; and protects from high impact flying projectiles that can cause permanent damage to the eye. In addition, all of the styles are designed to be comfortable enough to ensure compliance.

From broad protective products consisting of full-face shields and goggles to more procedure-specific systems like laser safety and bonding glasses, Palmero’s Provision New Safety Eyewear is said to offer the ultimate in comfort, convenience and affordability. In addition, the safety eyewear meets the ANSI Z87.1 eye and face protection standards with UVA and UVB protection.

“We recommend dental professionals implement an eye conservation program for their practice by using the four Cs of safety eyewear: certified, clarity, comfort and compliance,” says Karen Neiner, president of Palmero Healthcare.

  • Certified: Safety eyewear should incorporate a wraparound design for full coverage and meet industry standards and guidelines for lens, cornea and retina protection (ANSIZ87.1, OSHA, and CDC). It must be manufactured from high impact-resistant materials to protect from flying debris and projectiles and encompass a specialty bonding lens to filter out damaging Blue Light (400 nm- 500 nm) levels to the retina.

  • Clarity: Anti-fog coating, scratch-resistant technologies and superior lens designs provide excellent optics for visual acuity.

  • Comfort: There are many styles with a broad range of frame, temple and nose bridge designs. Individualized fit provides all day security and optimal comfort.

  • Compliance: Designs that provide practitioners incentives to use safety eyewear in every procedure, every day.

Palmero’s Provision New Safety Eyewear is said to meet the four Cs, and all of the Provision lines come in lightweight frames. Provision Allure, Air, Element and Clarity also come in an ultra-lightweight design. Goggles can be cumbersome, but not the ultra-light Eyesaver Sleeks. Their sleek design fits over prescription eyewear and adjustable temples allow for broader facial fit. The ProVision EZ-Focals are also reportedly extremely comfortable, and the wraparound frame is contoured with soft tips for added comfort, grit and a secure fit. ProVision Clarity reportedly provides incredibly clear and uninterrupted vision with its enhanced ultra anti-fog technology. It also fits small/narrow and medium face shapes. ProVision Flexiwrap provides full wraparound protection and a secure, comfortable fit with shorter, soft touch temples and a soft nose bridge.

The anti-static and anti-fogging features of ProVision Infinity are said to provide added protection and venting. It’s also enhanced with a pantoscopic tilt feature, and ratcheting temple arms reprortedly allow for customizable fit and optimal comfort.

The full 50 mm diameter-magnifying lens of Palmero’s ProVision Econo Loupes provides a fully enhanced clinical field and is a lightweight alternative to traditional loupes. It's also said to reduce eye strain and increase visual precision.
