Artificial intelligence (AI) is changing the game for workers who need prescription safety glasses.

According to Bollé Safety, industry feedback suggests a sizeable cohort of workers who have a prescription don’t wear safety glasses because they’re not suitable. Until now, getting prescription safety glasses has been a hassle. The need to visit a retail outlet, time spent off-site and the complexity of the process can be challenging to the detriment of safety and productivity.

Taking the Pain out of the Prescription Process

Blackwoods' supply partner Bollé Safety has chosen to lean into AI’s potential with its new SEAMLESS Vision platform. It’s a digital solution that allows workers to order prescription safety glasses using any device equipped with a camera and an internet connection.

SEAMLESS Vision offers a virtual measurement and tryon process. It measures pupillary distance (PD) to ensure an exact fit. It removes the need for in-person visits and simplifies logistics - especially in remote areas. It reduces errors and waste, while improving workplace safety.

Tamara Mika of Bollé Safety notes, “Our AS/NZS certified prescription safety glasses, available through SEAMLESS Vision, represent a huge leap in accessible safety solutions.” “This digital platform allows users to virtually try on their glasses, measure their PD accurately, and select lenses with support from our in-house Eye-Care Professionals (ECPs) at every step. By enabling an entirely online, guided experience, SEAMLESS Vision ensures that users everywhere - especially at remote sites - can confidently order safety eyewear tailored to their needs, helping reduce workplace risks and enhancing safety compliance.”

4 Steps to Productivity and Safety

The process is straightforward: 

1. Get a physical or digital SEAMLESS card.
2. Log in with the card code on the Bollé Safety website. The system measures PD and workers use the virtual try-on feature to choose the frame.
3. Tailor your new prescription safety eyewear. - clear or tinted.
4. Upload your prescription and enter your delivery details. You will receive your prescription safety glasses typically within 10 business days of Bollé receiving your order.

“With SEAMLESS Vision, we’re excited to offer a cutting-edge progressive lens design that eliminates the need for traditional height measurements. This innovation ensures smooth vision transitions and makes ordering progressive prescription safety glasses easier and more accessible than ever,” Tamara says.

SEAMLESS Vision saves you time and resources by equipping your workers with the safety eyewear they need to get on with the job.
