    Absolutely NOT True!  Always use at least didyium glasses to cut the
    sodium flare and protect your eyes from UV radiation.  AUR gives
    better color recognition and more UV protection.   Jim Kervins's
    book-"More Than you You Ever Wanted To Know About Glass Beadmaking"
    has an excellent chapter on eye protection and the dangers of UV and
    infrared radiation from torchwork.  You can contact him at (925)
    443-9139 or order from Arrow Springs at www.arrowsprings.com.  
    Craig at Arrow Springs is an excellent source of information for all
    things lampwork related- I highly recommend this company.  Good luck
    with your lampworking .  It's highly addicting.
