REGULAR EYEWEAR & CONTACT LENSES

Q: Can I wear regular eyewear or contact lenses when wearing Avon Protection respirators.

A: Avon Protection recommends that any user wearing any of our respirators including the MITR-PG1 half mask system powered goggles that require corrective eyewear need to use the vision correction system supplied as an optional extra for their particular system.

Regular eyewear frames and arms would interfere with the respirator seal and MITR™-PG1 fit and dangerously compromise the  safety and integrity of the system.

DO NOT wear contact lenses (soft or hard) while wearing any Avon Protection respirator or the MITR™-PG1. Inadequate oxygen supply to the corneal surface, exposure to dust, dirt, and smoke/gas may cause serious vision loss or eye damage. 

Users requiring vision correction are provided optical vision correction  inserts for their chosen respirator and MITR™-PG1 as an optional accessory.

Q: How do I source lenses in the USA for my Avon Protection Vision Correction System?

A:  If your local optometrist is unable to assist, Avon recommends contacting one of the following vendors who specialize in custom Rx lenses for Avon frames:
