The best protective equipment you can ever own is already yours —one pair of eyes. Just knowing what's going on around you helps you avoid job accidents. So it makes good sense to look after your eyes—so they'll look after you. It's a good habit to protect your eyes, if your job makes it neccessary. And if your eyesight's not up to par —have your eyes checked. You need them. Take care of your eyes, and they'll see you safely through the working day.
