Eye injuries can be very painful, disfiguring and debilitating. They can also change your life forever. Eye injuries can occur no matter what industry you work in or how careful you are. These injuries can vary from minor eye irritations to permanent and total blindness.

SESSION 2. A Simulation Exercise
This session involves the participants in an experiential learning exercise. During this exercise the participants are required to perform several simple tasks while blindfolded.
