The surgical face shield is a disposable, loose-fitting device, which creates a physical barrier between the nose and mouth of the wearer and potential contaminants in the immediate environment. Surgical face shields are available at different lengths and materials to protect from contaminants. These shields are generally used to protect the wearer from splashes, large-particle droplets, and sprays. Furthermore, these prevent the spread of infectious respiratory secretions from the wearer to others.Face shields are durable owing to which they can be cleaned and reused. However, they might cause glare or fogging and can lead to aerosol penetration due to the absence of a better seal around the face. The novel coronavirus pandemic has compelled healthcare facilities such as hospitals to extend their infection control measures, which is anticipated to drive the demand for face shields over the forecast period.Face shields are mainly used by healthcare workers, pre-hospital emergency medical providers, and dental providers. Face shields are used in conjunction with other PPE, such as surgical masks and goggles.
