Workers are exposed to a number of hazards when their eyewear fogs. A new white paper released by Honeywell examines and addresses the factors that cause lens fogging as well as tips to select the best eyewear with anti-fog properties. "Fogging is the number one problem faced by safety eyewear users," the white paper states. "....Fogging on untreated lenses is nearly impossible to avoid no matter where work is conducted, and it might seem like no big deal."

According to a new white paper released by Honeywell, "Fogging is the number one problem faced by safety eyewear users... Fogging on untreated lenses is nearly impossible to avoid no matter where work is conducted, and it might seem like no big deal."

The white paper lists four factors related to temperature and humidity that cause fogging: environmental heat and humidity, worker exertion, transitions between warm and cool environments and lens washing.

Workers who remove their eyewear because of fogging are susceptible to eye injuries including those from falling objects, airborne particulate matter and splashing chemicals.
