Eye protection - what you should know
If there is a risk of eye damage when performing your work, wear eye protection or safety goggles.
Frame glasses
Regular safety glasses or goggles with lenses made of either impact-resistant polycarbonate or chemical-resistant acetate.
The color (tint) of the lenses is crucial when choosing goggles. Each tint has its protective function and is therefore of great importance.
