In for one, thanks.

I was curious about the ANSI rating on these. While the product page says nothing about that, there's multiple amazon.com Q&As and reviews that note that they're stamped with Z87+U6L1.3.

Z87+ I'm familiar with for impact protection. Going by this blog post [mcrsafety.com], U6 indicates that it has a certain level of UV protection, with U2 being the lowest and U6 being the highest (blocking 99.9% UV light; tested and verified by a user with a UV measuring tool in one of the reviews), and L1.3 indicates a visible light filter, and how much visible light transmittance allowed by the lens (L1.3 is the most light transmittance; L10 is the least light transmittance), which is probably indicative of the advertised blue light blocking that the glasses have. No ANSI rating for the advertised anti-fog though.

I don't know if I'd trust my life with these things, but I always like to have some cheap PPE around for light duty that I'm not worried about breaking.
If it's yours you can do whatever you want with it.

I reuse disposable spoon and fork and many other disposable stuff all the time. They are not durable but as long as they are not broken or damage, I will reuse them cause I hate throwing usable stuff away and having to spend MONEY to buy replacement. IMO "disposable" mean cheap to replace. Thank goodness to Capitalism making things cheap.
Why would I throw them away?

It's lower priced using s&s. I've just placed an order, and will decide later if I'd keep when those of you knowledgeable about these things comment.

Because they get scratched to the point of unusable.

They are impact-rated but not scratch-resistant. I have purchased these before (I purchased them AGAIN this morning after seeing the SlickDeal here) and they scratch up pretty easily. After a while your lenses will fill with scratches and you will dispose of them. Unless you're a hoarder and keep everything. Then I stand corrected.

If you work pest control, this is a steal. Great to have in the cab in case of an inspection.

If this is being discontinued, it might not be in stock by the time your S&S delivery comes around. It's happened to me a couple of times.

Down to the last few of a 12 pack I ordered a few years back. They eventually get too scratched up and need to be tossed plus I leave them in random places and like to have multiple pairs around.

Would these be good to wear in the evening to get you ready for bed?
