Maintenance of eye protection

 The lenses of eye protectors must be kept clean as dirty lenses restrict vision, which can cause eye fatigue and lead to accidents.   

• The manufacturer’s/suppliers instructions should be followed for the appropriate cleaning method. Anti-static and anti-fog lens cleaning fluids may be used; daily if static or misting is a problem.
• Eye protector headbands should be replaced when worn out or damaged.

Lenses that are scratched or pitted must be replaced as they may impair vision and their resistance to impact may be impaired. Transparent face shields must be replaced when warped, scratched or have become brittle with age.
