In sign language, facial expressions serve as cues for grammar and tone. Additionally, lip reading is often essential to both Deaf and Hard of Hearing individuals supplement auditory understanding.

The new Face Mask Clear, with its transparent dome and top-class protection, becomes a piece of personal protective equipment used in every setting.
