Goggles are one of the key safety equipment that protects our eyes. Scientists wear them during experiments, divers use them under water to see clearly, mechanics wear them to avoid eye injury, skiers use them to prevent icy winds and debris from entering eyes. All the above activities can be referred to using the goggles emoji.
🥽 Goggles emoji popped onto our screens in 2018 and has been a mainstay ever since. Primarily, the emoji evokes notions of safety. It's a go-to symbol for those seeking to underline the importance of eye protection in lab settings. A little microscope emoji added, and the message becomes clear: protect those peepers during experiments!
Interestingly, some folks pair this emoji with a swimmer emoji. The idea? To suggest someone bring swimming goggles. While the diving mask emoji was introduced for this very purpose, the goggles emoji still swims its way into such conversations.
Different platforms display this emoji in unique hues. For instance, Microsoft and WhatsApp opt for blue goggles, adding a layer of interpretative flair. Whether it's transparent or blue, the underlying message remains the same: safety or aquatic adventures await.
It can simultaneously denote safety in a scientific lab and a fun day at the swimming pool. When the stakes are high in activities ranging from scientific experiments to skiing down snowy slopes, this emoji signals eye protection as a non-negotiable. Let's not forget the mechanics and skiers, who also find the emoji handy. For them, it's less about chlorine and chemicals and more about avoiding dust or icy winds. But whichever way you lean, the emoji does its job of signaling protection and adventure in equal measure.
