    What kind of glasses were they?

    They were prescription, non-safety polycarbonate lenses, which are identical in (glass-plastic) strength to safety/shooting glasses as far as the lenses go, but don't provide nearly the same amount of eye coverage or frame strength. Obviously, I have amended my eye coverage since having a close call. I got pretty lucky; had to learn the hard way, but it could have been worse.
