Today I bought goggles for use at my swimming lessons. It came with a ominous warning: "Do NOT dive into the water wearing goggles."
That's strange. Now I'm left wondering if I should just allow the chlorine water to burn my eyes.
WARNING: "DOES NOT PROVIDE PROTECTION IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT. " What kind of accident is it referring to? I'm really hoping it will not let any water get into my eyes...it doesn't seem so because it gives instructions on how to remove water from the eye cups. Really, what is the use of this thing?
It also states: "USE ONLY UNDER COMPETENT SUPERVISION." Did I buy goggles or something else?

OK so I was doing some further research on goggles for use in water, and I'm seeing that these instructions aren't so ridiculous after all. Oh boy, you really have to pay attention to labels.
Yes, provisions must be made for the goggles to be held in place while going into water abruptly (like diving). They will upset and drag across your face possibly disorienting you enough to impair your safety.

Can you swim? I'm just learning. It's scary.Yes, provisions must be made for the goggles to be held in place while going into water abruptly (like diving). They will upset and drag across your face possibly disorienting you enough to impair your safety.
I can swim, although at 72 I seldom have enough energy to do so anymore. Goggles are used mostly for scuba diving and snorkeling which I have done very little.
Kim, first of all, please let us share from many years of experience, "don't ever immerge yourself in 'chlorinated-water', much less
'drink it' -
it will begin upon impact to destroy your most important organs, your skin first, and it will totally damage your most sensitive
organs, 'your ears-nostrils' and everything inside' - way to many problems to address here' - if u can't find natural water, then you
can find water that is treated with 'salt', which will not hurt you in the long run...
(((always drink distilled water and use for cooking and for your animals'...
hub and I were/are 'water-babies' from when we were pre-school, mostly in the ocean/springs, and we have found out and experienced the hard-way what the poison chlorine and it effects had on ourselves when the sea was out of our reach -
then it was a 'no-brainer' that this became a part of our 'old-man'...

The sad thing is I know a few people who NEED those last two warnings. They would use a match to try to see how much gas is in the tank and they would let their kids play in a dishwasher.
