eyesExplanation
When working, it is important for others to be able to see your eye or eyes. This is because eye contact is an important form of nonverbal communication.

Correct Answer
A. Side ShieldsExplanation
Safety rated prescription glasses can be used as PPE with side shields. Side shields are additional attachments that are added to the sides of the glasses to provide extra protection from hazards such as flying debris or splashes. These shields help to prevent any objects from entering the sides of the glasses and causing potential harm to the eyes. Therefore, by using safety rated prescription glasses with side shields, individuals can ensure that their eyes are adequately protected while working in potentially hazardous environments.Rate this question:
