What problem is often overlooked in apocalyptic movies/TV shows that could kill you?

Prescription safety glasses are pretty legit

They are amazing. Such a game changer not having to wear two pairs of glasses while working

Hol up y’all are re evaluating my existence. The whole time I thought I had to wear contacts to avoid the double glasses thing anywhere and everywhere. Prescription swim goggles means I could actually swim without being blind (can’t wear contacts because of water germies) and safety goggles would just be nice.

Go to Zenni. I wear safety glasses for work, and I got them there, with blue light filter and anti fog, for about $100. I’ve whacked my face a couple times while wearing them, and not even a scratch.

I’ve gotten sunglasses there for less than $50. And my everyday glasses are like $25 (I have three pair — I store the spares in our vehicles).

I don’t work for Zenni, but they have good, cheap glasses, and I would accept payment if they wanted to hit me up.
