万圣节安全提示：FDA提醒服装要阻燃贴身、糖果先检查，装饰性隐形眼镜必须凭处方购买
10月31日（周六）是万圣节。美国食品药品监督管理局（FDA）向家长与装扮者发布安全提示，涵盖服装、化妆、糖果与装饰性隐形眼镜等方面。
服装方面：选择阻燃面料、剪裁贴身的服装，避免拖沓的下摆靠近南瓜灯等明火；在服装与讨糖袋上贴反光条，提高夜间能见度。化妆方面，可考虑用化妆代替遮挡视线的面具；使用面部化妆品前，先小面积试用24至48小时，确认无过敏反应再大面积涂抹。
糖果方面：孩子带回家的糖果应先检查再食用，包装破损或有被篡改迹象的丢弃；幼儿的糖果中要挑出可能造成窒息的小件物品。南瓜灯内建议使用电池蜡烛代替明火。
FDA特别提醒：装饰性隐形眼镜属于医疗器械，不得在没有眼科检查与处方的情况下购买佩戴。无处方佩戴可能造成眼部感染、角膜擦伤甚至视力丧失，街头市集、美容用品店与网络渠道出售的无处方产品同样存在这一风险。

Halloween Safety: FDA Urges Flame-Resistant Costumes and Checked Candy, and Warns Decorative Contact Lenses Require a Prescription
Halloween falls on Saturday, October 31. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has issued safety tips for parents and costume wearers covering costumes, makeup, candy and decorative contact lenses.
For costumes, the FDA advises choosing flame-resistant fabrics and a well-fitting cut, keeping trailing hems away from open flames such as jack-o'-lantern candles, and adding reflective tape to costumes and treat bags to improve visibility at night. For makeup, it suggests using makeup instead of masks that can block vision, and testing makeup on a small area of skin 24 to 48 hours beforehand to check for an allergic reaction.
For candy, treats children bring home should be inspected before eating; anything with torn or tampered packaging should be discarded, and small items that pose a choking hazard should be removed from young children's bags. Battery-operated candles are recommended inside jack-o'-lanterns instead of real flames.
The FDA stresses that decorative contact lenses are medical devices and must not be bought or worn without an eye exam and a prescription. Wearing non-prescription lenses risks eye infection, corneal abrasion and even vision loss, and the warning applies to lenses sold at flea markets, beauty supply stores and online.
Anyone who suspects a child has eaten something harmful or shows signs of poisoning can call Poison Control at 1-800-222-1222.
