During which activity should goggles NOT be worn?

  1. Using phenol

  2. Sanitizing hands

  3. Mixing disinfectant

  4. Use of ultraviolet rays

The correct answer is: Sanitizing hands

Goggles are protective eyewear designed to shield the eyes from harmful substances, splashes, or radiation during certain activities. In the context of nail technician practices, wearing goggles is essential during tasks that involve potentially hazardous materials or expose the eyes to harmful substances, such as using phenol, mixing disinfectants, or utilizing ultraviolet rays for disinfection. In the case of sanitizing hands, this process typically involves the use of hand sanitizers or soap and water, which do not pose a significant risk of splashing or exposure to harmful chemicals that could harm the eyes. Therefore, wearing goggles is not necessary during hand sanitization, making it the appropriate choice for when goggles should not be worn. It’s important to assess the risks associated with each activity to determine the need for eye protection, and hand sanitization is a relatively safe procedure in this regard.
