Welcome to Dr William Boothe
Employees working in locations where there is a risk of receiving eye injuries such as punctures, abrasions, contusions, or burns as a result of contact with flying particles, hazardous substances, projections or injurious light rays which are inherent in the work or environment, shall be safeguarded by means of face or eye protection. Suitable screens or shields isolating the hazardous exposure may be considered adequate safeguarding for nearby employees.
Eye guards are multi-functional for different sports. Eyeguards designed for use in raquet sports are now commonly used for basketball and soccer as well. Eye guards in combination with helmets are used for football, hockey and baseball. If you wear prescription glasses, ask your eye doctor to fit you with prescription eyeguards. If you're a monocular (a person with only one functional eye), ask your eye doctor what sports you can safely participate in. It is especailly important that monocular athletes always wear eye guards.
