Abstract
Farmworkers face a variety of risk factors for eye injuries. Measures of eye protection use and of eye safety knowledge and beliefs are based on a survey of 300 Latino farmworkers in North Carolina. Few farmworkers report using eye protection (8.3%); most (92.3%) report that employers do not provide eye protection. Approximately 70% report that they are not trained in preventing eye injuries; 81% believe that their chances of getting an eye injury are low. Many farmworkers choose to take risks in order to save time. Interventions are needed that target farmworker knowledge and beliefs about eye safety.

农场工人面临着各种眼部受伤的风险因素。眼部保护措施的使用以及眼部安全知识和信念的衡量标准是基于对北卡罗来纳州 300 名拉丁裔农场工人的调查。很少有农场工人报告使用眼部保护（8.3%）；大多数（92.3%）报告说雇主不提供眼部保护。大约 70%的人报告说他们没有接受过预防眼部受伤的培训；81%的人认为他们眼部受伤的几率很低。许多农场工人为了节省时间而选择冒险。需要针对农场工人对眼部安全的知识和信念进行干预。
