1 Eye Safety
2 Each day, about 2,000 US workers injure their eyes and require medical treatment Thousands of workers are blinded each year from work-related eye injuries 2
3 Common eye injuries include Cuts to or penetration of the eyelid Permanent or temporary loss of vision Burns Cuts and tears to the cornea Penetration of the eyeball 3
4 Some causes of eye hazards include Projectiles (flying fragments, particles, and sparks) Chemicals (molten metal, splashes, and fumes) Radiation (visible light, lasers, UV light, glare, heat, or infrared radiation) Infectious diseases transmitted through mucous membranes (bloodborne pathogens, respiratory droplets, and contact with contaminated fingers or objects) 4
5 Any job can expose you to eye hazards, but some jobs put you at higher risk, including Welding and cutting Working with corrosive chemicals Working with paints and solvents Electrical work Maintenance work 5
6 Protect your eyes from injury by using engineering controls, safe work practices, and wearing eye and face protection while you work 6
7 Engineering controls are the best method to reduce eye hazards at your worksite Engineering controls can include Machine guards Work screens Enclosures 7
8 Some safe work practices include Being aware of the tasks that put you at risk for eye injuries Obeying warning signs Properly using and maintaining all guards, work screens, and enclosures Being trained on the location of and how to use eyewash stations Knowing what to do if there is an emergency 8
9 Companies must assess workplaces for eye hazards and provide workers with PPE to protect them from those hazards 9
10 Companies must train workers on this PPE to know When it is necessary What type is necessary How to properly put on, take off, adjust, and wear it Its limitations The proper care, maintenance, useful life, and disposal 10
11 PPE designed to protect your eyes includes Safety glasses and safety goggles Faceshields Welding hoods 11
12 Safety glasses are commonly used as protection against impact and radiation Safety glasses are commonly worn for activities, such as sawing, hammering, and drilling 12
13 Sideshields are required any time there are hazards from flying particles or objects Safety glasses must have protective sideshields and be ANSI Z-87-approved 13
14 Goggles are stronger than safety glasses and are used for Higher impact protection Greater particle protection Chemical splashes Welding light protection When using goggles for welding, make sure they are the proper shade number 14
15 Faceshields are used for higher impact protection and protect the wearer s face in addition to their eyes Wear faceshields with safety glasses or safety goggles because faceshields do not provide enough protection by themselves 15
16 Faceshields are often used for activities, such as spraying, chipping, and grinding 16
17 To protect your eyes from exposure to extreme heat, UV light, glare, or radiation, such as during welding operations, wear special welding protection Safety goggles Welding hood with properly tinted, filtered glass 17
18 If you get something in your eye or suffer an eye injury, use an eyewash station to rinse out your eyes Flush your eyes for at least 15 minutes If you are welding, you must wash your eyes using the eyewash station during your shift and at the end of each shift 18
19 Know where eyewash stations are before you start work so you can get to them quickly if needed 19
20 Most eye injuries can be prevented by Following safe work practices Protecting your eyes with appropriate PPE Using eyewash stations to rinse out your eyes if needed 20
