The OSHA standards that recommend against contact lenses (Acrylonitrile,
Ethylene oxide, Dibromochloropropane (DBCP), 4,4'-Methylenedianiline,
1,3-Butadiene, and Methylene chloride) date from well before it was shown

reference to contact lenses. Can you help me identify the paragraph for the
citation. ... Jim Kaufman
