Wiley X Prescription Safety Glasses at Amazing Prices
Wiley X prescription safety glasses feature numerous specialized benefits. These product features demonstrate the brand’s commitment to delivering more than just glasses to put on your eyes.
One such feature is the ANSI standard Wiley X uses for its lenses and frames. The standard is established to give you higher protection for your eyes from small debris, fast moving objects, and particles.
Wiley X’s ANSI Z87.1 safety glasses come with comprehensive protection. This standard of Wiley X ANSI certified glasses is maintained on top of the mandatory US Federal OSHA 1910.133(b)(1)(1) standard.
Wiley X brand prescription safety glasses that come with ANSI protection go through a series of tests before they are delivered to an authorized dealer.
- ANSI High Velocity Impact Test: Lenses and frames of all ANSI Z87.1 safety glasses are tested to withstand the impact of a speed ball with a diameter of 0.25mm fired directly at them at a speed of 150 feet/sec.
- VO Ballistic Test: Frames and lenses are tested to withstand the direct impact of multiple projectiles of 0.15 to 0.22 calibre fired at the speed of 550 to 660 feet/sec.
- EN-166 Test for European Markets: Wiley X ANSI certified glasses are expected to be sold in Europe with the EN-166 standard. In this test, the glasses are tested to withstand the impact of a steel ball with 0.22mm diameter fired directly at the frame and lenses at 5.1 metre/sec.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the silhouette like — how does the Founder compare to other Wiley X tactical frames?
The Founder is the largest, boldest frame in the current Wiley X lineup — heavier face coverage, wider lens, more visible presence. Where the Saint reads as understated and the JAKL reads as aggressively athletic, the Founder reads as a statement frame. The matte build and the removable side shields keep it functional, but the design intent is visibility — a frame that announces itself rather than blends in.
Are the side shields removable, and does that affect compliance?
Yes, removable. The Founder ships with the side-shield module attached, which puts the configuration into OSHA 1910.133 lateral-protection compliance. With the shields removed, it’s still ANSI Z87.1+ rated for frontal impact, so you can wear it as everyday sunglasses off-shift and snap the shields back in when you need OSHA-compliant industrial coverage. That dual-mode flexibility is the main reason buyers pick this over a permanent-shield industrial frame.
Does the Founder come in prescription, or sunglasses only?
Both paths exist. The sunglasses configuration is the most common buy — Selenite polycarbonate in smoke-grey, polarized smoke, or copper for variable conditions. The prescription configuration is also available; the Founder’s lens housing is moderately curved (less aggressive than the Saber Advanced shield), which means it accepts a ground-in Rx cut directly into the lens rather than requiring the PTX insert. FSA/HSA applies only to the prescription path.
Will they work with motorcycle helmet use?
Yes, with the temple geometry tuned for mid-range helmet compatibility. The Founder’s slightly thicker temples don’t slip under a full-face helmet as cleanly as the JAKL’s slim profile, but a modular or 3/4 helmet works fine. If the priority is full-face helmet compatibility, the JAKL is a better pick. If you want a frame for cruiser, ADV, or off-bike everyday wear with the option to convert into compliant industrial PPE, the Founder is the right call.
What's the price range and what are you paying for at the top of it?
The Founder runs $110 at the entry colorway and up to $206 for premium configurations with polarized lenses and specialty colorways. The price-to-value math is heavily front-loaded: the entry $110 configuration carries the same ANSI Z87.1+ certification, the same Selenite lens material, and the same removable shield kit as the $206 configurations. The premium pricing pays for polarized smoke, specialty frame colors, or limited-edition collaborations rather than for material differences.
