Currently, there is no marking system for military-grade eyewear, but the Program Executive Office Solider website regularly updates its APEL list of military-approved eyewear. While most military-grade glasses and goggles will meet ANSI standards, ANSI-certified eyewear is not necessarily APEL-certified.ĪNSI-certified eyewear will display a Z87+ marking somewhere on the product.

The military follows their own ballistic standards used for testing, MIL-PRF-31013 for glasses and MIL-DTL-43511D for goggles. You can identify ANSI-certified glasses or goggles by the ANSI Z87+ mark that appears on them. It’s important to note that while some eyewear may meet the ANSI standard for one form of protection, it doesn’t guarantee protection from all of the threats listed above. ANSI-certified products are rigorously tested to meet the specified requirements and can provide protection from dust, heat, optical radiation, chemical splashes, and impacts. The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) sets the national testing and standards for nearly every non-military industry, including civilian eye protection. There are different safety standards for civilian protective eyewear and military protective eyewear.

I plan to keep using them and I am looking forward to using them during the summer. Overall, I like the Tifosi Ordnance Tactical glasses to the point that they are my new go to glasses for work. No issues with transition from cold outside to warm inside. The weather has been on the cold side in Illinois lately. I found them really comfortable during tactical use while wearing a beanie, headset and helmet during training and warrant service.

I have worn them during static range use, on a SWAT range day (requiring full kit with movement) and high risk warrants. I primarily used the Ordnance Tactical with the clear lenses on. I received the glasses with clear lenses, high contrast red and smoke lenses. The extra lenses have a pouch with sleeves for each to protect them.

Peripheral vision was not distorted at all. As far as clarity goes, I found no problems seeing. The lenses wrapped around to cover the sides of my eyes. I felt that they were well made and had a nice design. I would expect if something heavy had been placed on top then it then damage would occur. The case does a good job of keeping the glasses and extra lenses protected from being crushed during normal use.

Inside was a case that held the Ordnance glasses. The National Tactical Officer’s Association (NTOA) has given Tifosi its endorsement for their tactical line up. This means the tactical glasses were put under aggressive testing and had to have held up well. The glasses seem to be light weight so the wearer doesn’t feel like he is wearing a pair on his face. Typical models listed as “tactical” glasses usually come in around $120.00 or more. They looked every bit like ones I would have expected to be priced higher then they are advertised. When I received them, I noticed that they were packaged in a box that was very nicely done.

I have had a pair of Tifosi Ordnance Tactical eye pro with interchangeable lenses of approximately 1 month now. A fundamental part of intelligent behavior is planning. Planning is thinking about a goal and then organizing the activities to achieve the goal. With a plan, you can see how much you have progressed towards your goal and how far on your map to the next destination.
