Notwithstanding of the advanced technology and medical developments achieved in the last decade, an important amount of health problems still exist in modern dentistry. The risks of eye infections and eye injuries are mostly associated with the use of materials and high-speed handpieces. There are chemical, mechanical, and microbiological irritants in dental offices that can cause eye infections and injuries. Hazards may cause facial injuries that involve the eyes of the practitioner, patient and dental assistant. From simple irritations to blindness, eye injuries can vary widely in their severity. It is necessary to use eye protection tools, such as visors and protective goggles, to reduce the risk of eye damage while working with different types of floating materials. Consequently, all precautions should be taken, even when performing simple procedures for which the risk expectation is relatively low.
