I had a quick question for the brain trust here. I’ve done a bit of welding in the past but it was before the fancy auto darkening helmets. I know I can trust them but I’m on the paranoid side, comes from everything I’ve done. My question is about safety glasses. I’ve been doing some research and see they make safety glasses rated to protect your eyes from arc flash. Obviously not a replacement for your hood but I was wondering if anyone had opinions on them and what the best choice would be for a hobbyist?
