I’m working in a chemical manufacturing company where i am exposed to harmful chemicals and in order to protect myself especially my eyes i always wear safety glasses. Unlike regular glasses, safety glasses cover your eyes from the sides as well as from the top in addition to covering the front side, so that nothing can enter your eyes and damage them. Safety glasses are those special kinds of eyewear that have passed through certain ANSI standards.
Actually, i have a co-worker who lost his one eye because of chemical mishandling. It was a big lesson for him and for us as well. So if you’re working on the same environment like ours, be sure to wear safety glasses, protective clothing and other safety apparatus, to enable a safer working environment, which will help to reduce or nullify any accidents.
