lens can also be damaged, but because the cornea acts as a filter, the chances are re-

Burns to the eyes are usually more painful and serious than a burn to the skin. Make
sure your eye protection is appropriate for this work. NORMAL EYEGLASSES OR
CONTACTS OFFER VERY LIMITED PROTECTION!
Training
For the use of UV sources, new users must be trained by another member of the labora-
tory who, in the opinion of the member of staff in charge of the department, is suffi-
ciently competent to give instruction on the correct procedure. Newly trained users
should be overseen for some time by a competent person.
Caution:
UV exposures are not immediately felt. The us-
er may not realize the hazard until it is too late and the
damage is done.
