Contact lenses can trap pesticide residues against the eye, increasing the risk of irritation or injury if exposure occurs. TheGeneral Pest Management: Guide for Commercial Applicators - Category 7A(Chapter 3: Pesticide Safety) advises applicators to not wear contact lenses when handling pesticides to avoid this risk. Option A (face shield) and Option B (goggles) are protective measures for the eyes but do not address the specific hazard of contact lenses trapping chemicals.
