Are You Keeping an Eye on Safety?

ISSUE NO. 831

With allergy season in full swing, eye irritation is top of mind. While rubbing your eyes is tempting, frequent hand washing and avoiding eye contact with dirty hands is important to reduce the risk of transferring allergens or germs to your eyes. Keeping your eyes safe and healthy during allergy season isn’t just about managing symptoms - it’s about preventing long-term damage and maintaining clear vision all year long.


For those in sterile processing and infection prevention, eye safety is a daily concern, not a seasonal one. Regular checks of emergency equipment, like eye wash stations, are critical for ensuring a safe and compliant work environment.


That’s where the Eye Wash Temperature Check Tag comes in. It's designed to assist with verifying that the water in their facility’s eye wash station is within a tepid temperature range. Attached to a nickel-plated ball chain for easy hanging, the front features a log to document weekly maintenance checks. The back includes a liquid crystal thermometer and displays the recommended water temperature range of 16–38°C (60–100°F).


Think of it as a simple but essential tool that helps your team stay compliant. With 12 tags per pack and replacement chains available, it’s easy to keep your eye wash station up to standard. Visit the feature section below to request your complimentary sample of the Eye Wash Temperature Check Tag today.
