Who Should Wear Eye Protection?

[black glasses frames]

Everyone requires eye protection at one time or another. Individuals with good vision in only one eye are at special risk and should wear eye protection at all times. All children who wear glasses should have polycarbonate or Trivex material lenses. Below are examples of activities that require eye protection:
1. Working with power tools, lawnmowers, and power trimmers
2. Working with hazardous chemicals and caustic materials
3. Securing elastic "bungee" cords
4. Hammering, drilling, or grinding
5. Riding a motorcycle, ATV, or bicycle
6. Hunting or fishing
7. Participating in at-risk sports
Eye injuries can happen to anyone, but most injuries are preventable. Minimize your risk.
