@Jerzees You are right, the reason I ask before buying something is that a lot of people say they have used it, so it gives some confidence that it is safe and works well. Since this is just $15, i will get one and then leave a review here afterward.

I understand why people use cheap glassesā¦ I did the same. However single incident changed everything.
My eyes are worth any money spent on keeping them intact.

After double-cataract surgery, I only need reading glasses, but I decided to buy the highest-rated, unfiltered WORK goggles - in this case, 3M & MILWAUKEE - to completely SEAL the area around my eyes. FYI

Are these really safe for shooting practice?

Primarily I live by two philosophies one has always been, if Iām 15 minutes early, Iām already late and buy once cry once!
Glad I did. Today itās extremely hard to find good lasting quality in anything we buy. I try very hard not to buy Chinese made products.
When it comes to my safety and well being it will always be the best I can find and afford.

Iām pretty sure this is the pair I have:
They are specifically made for shooting protection. I will have to check later for the specific model I have. Mine came with an elastic strap to replace the legs, so they are very comfortable under earmuffs.

Thatās why my prescription eyeglasses and Rx sunglasses have polycarbonate lenses. In anticipation of incidents like that. It could happen around guns or in simpler environments like doing yard work.

This is how Wiley X are testedā¦.
When we are talking about shooting glasses, MIL-PRF-32432A is more important standard than ANSI Z87.1
See the difference:
MIL-PRF-32432A - military performance specification for ballistic-rated combat eye protection
ANSI Z87.1 - American National Standard for personal eye and face protection devices

They donāt shoot frozen turkeys out of a cannon at them?
I took a look and mine are Saber Advanced SKU 300 that I canāt find on the website now. I do see ācordsā listed that are the elastic strap I have. Guess you have to buy the cord separately now.

Frozen turkey is used only to test ANSI Z87.1, which is an industrial and educational standard.
Unlessā¦. you get access to military grade Turkish Combat Turkey.

I think we all appreciate quality, but when it comes to spending money, we often end up choosing the cheaper option.

sounds like a solid and comfortable setup especially with the elastic strap.

It really depends on the level of safety you need.

It depends on the safety you need and on how much your eyes are worth. 
If Iām working construction Iāll use glasses rated by ANSI Z87.1. (itās enough for this purpose)
If Iām shooting a firearms Iām using glasses rated by MIL-PRF-32432A. (this is whatās needed)
You only have 2 eyesā¦ these cannot be replaced if accidentally damagedā¦
And actually Wiley X Saber Advanced (SKU 3xx) are not expensive anymore. YOU can find those below $100, depending on insertsā color.

Got it, looks like the cords now need to be purchased separately. Thanks for the update

Can anyone explain what kinds of things can lead to self-injury during shooting practice?
