What Role Do Face Visors Provide Against Covid-19?

Covid-19 is primarily spread through respiration droplets. A white paper discussing the efficacy of face shields discussed the role of face shields, or face visors, in preventing the spread of Coronavirus. A coughing simulator showed that a face visor reduced inhalational exposure.

During testing of an influenza-laden cough aerosol with a volume median diameter (VMD) of 8.5 μm, wearing a face shield reduced the inhalational exposure of the worker by 96% in the period immediately after a cough.

In addition to covering your nose and mouth, face shields also protect the eyes. Covid-19 infected respiration droplets could potentially enter the eyes and cause infection. Face visors reduce the risk of this happening.

They can shield the eyes from respiration droplets which could contain not only Covid-19 but influenza, H1N1 virus and other types of infections. They can also be used with glasses, goggles and face masks for increased protection.
