🔍 Key Concepts

• Types of eye protection and how fully they seal around the eyes • Differences between impact protection vs dust / fine particles protection • How gaps around the lenses allow airborne abrasives to enter

💭 Think About

• Which of these options completely covers or seals the area around the eyes, leaving the fewest gaps for dust to enter? • Is a shield in front of the face always the best against fine dust, or can particles still come in from underneath or around the sides? • Which device is specifically designed to keep out small airborne particles, not just protect from impact?

✅ Before You Answer

• Compare how much of the eye area each option covers, including sides, top, and bottom • Think about which device is designed to form a close fit to the face around the eyes • Ask: which option would you choose if you were sandblasting or working in heavy airborne dust?
