It is important to remove contact lenses, rings, and watches before working in a lab because when working in a lab, you come in contact with dangerous chemicals. It is a possibility that the chemicals or fumes may become entrapped behind the contact lenses, or in/under the jewelry.

The danger comes in a chemical splash accident where the person must rinse the area, the contacts will prevent that from happening and there is a chance chemicals can be stored on the lenses causing further reaction.
