The Eye Wash Bottle offered by Rehabmart has a unique eye cup designed for flushing the eye for instant relief, whether the injured person is standing or lying down.  Immediately removing the physical object in the eye prevents further scratching to the cornea and pupil.

 

       Keeping a Pocket Size Eyewash Bottle at hand can make the difference between vision loss and mild irritation.  It goes where you go, so say goodbye to irritating particles in the eye while gardening, cleaning with harsh chemicals, or working on household construction/restoration projects.

       Prevent Blindness America conducted studies that show that nearly one million Americans have had vision loss due to an eye injury.  Seven hundred thousand Americans experience eye injuries at the workplace every year, and two thousand workers require medical eye treatment every day.  The good news is that ninety percent of all workplace eye injuries can be prevented by simply using the correct safety eyewear.  Use Zone II-Black and Silver Frame Safety Glasses in the workplace to drastically reduce the potential of any eye damage.

       Eye injuries are classified as physical, chemical or thermal and while proper eye protection depends on the potential eye hazards present in the workplace, protective eyewear is needed to protect those delicate eyes from all three causes of eye injury.  So wear them and let them do their job while you do yours with Clear and Smoke Lense Safety Glasses.  The extra eye protection with extended eye shields make Clear and Smoke Safety Glasses the "clear" choice for preventing flying eye irritants in the workplace.

       Optimum eye protection means making sure to select the proper protective eyewear that is specifically designed for a certain environment or hazards.  Protective eyewear specifications must meet the current standards from the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970.  The ZTEK Blue Mirrored Lensed Glasses reflect certain harmful workplace conditions to reduce thermal eye damage.

       And last but not least, what can workers with prescription eyeglasses wear without sacrificing their 20/20 vision or the safety of their eyes?  Look no further than the Assembled Protective Glasses.  They are designed specifically to provide the maximum protection and comfort and are to be worn over a pair of glasses.

So, the bottom line is that the workforce and Americans as a whole need to step up their safety precautions regarding eyewear to prevent 90% of eye injuries from ever occurring in the first place.  It only takes a few seconds to slip on protective glasses and keep the eyewash within reach and a few pennies a week is a very small price to pay for our priceless, one-pair-a-lifetime eyes.  Make sure that you have safe days at work and no eye injuries at home for every project from here on out by following these common sense eye safety tips!
