Eye Safety Trivia Quiz

Power tools can produce flying objects that can go into your eyes and cause damage.

Chemicals have the potential to splash into the eyes and cause burns. This is because the eyes are sensitive organs, and direct contact with certain chemicals can lead to severe damage and burns. It is important to take precautions, such as wearing protective eyewear, when working with chemicals to prevent any potential harm to the eyes.

Although blunt objects may not pierce the eye, they can still cause impact damage.

Using only safety glasses when using chemicals cannot protect your eyes from chemical splashes and fumes.

Fumes from chemicals can also damage your eyes. Read the shop's MSDS sheets so you will know if the chemical are using produces fumes that may damage your eyes.

Use only hoods and goggles with specially tinted filters designed for the type of welding being performed.

Looking at computer and video screens for extended periods can lead to eye strain, as the eyes are constantly focusing and refocusing on the screen. This can cause discomfort, dryness, and fatigue. Additionally, prolonged screen time can result in blurred vision, where objects may appear fuzzy or out of focus. Lastly, it can also cause difficulty seeing at night, as the eyes may become more sensitive to light and have a harder time adjusting to darkness. Therefore, all of the mentioned symptoms can occur due to prolonged screen exposure.

Never look at welding light, not even for a moment. Even a little exposure can cause damage to your eyes that may not manifest itself until later in your life.

Any heated solids, hot gasses (such as hot air from heat guns), and hot liquids can cause eye injuries.

Using a face shield and/or safety glasses can help prevent heat-related injuries. These protective measures can shield the face and eyes from heat sources, such as hot objects or exposure to intense heat. By wearing a face shield and safety glasses, individuals can reduce the risk of burns, eye damage, and other heat-related injuries that may occur in certain environments or situations.

The correct answer is Impact, chemical, heat, and light. These four types of eye injuries cover a range of potential hazards that can harm the eyes. Impact injuries occur when an object strikes the eye, chemical injuries result from exposure to harmful substances, heat injuries can be caused by intense heat sources, and light injuries can be caused by exposure to bright lights or lasers.

Reducing the brightness and using filters can also reduce video screen eye strain.

Ultraviolet light, from the sun, can cause the lens of the eye to become cloudy. Use eyeglasses with maximum UV protection tinted lenses when working outdoors to protect against such damage.

Face shields, SAFETY GLASSES, safety goggles, and sports goggles, must be used to protect your eyes fro impact injuries. Regular eye glasses should not be used to protect against impact injuries.
