Default New hazard from gas-powered string trimmers?

Just bought a Stihl gas-powered string trimmer. It came with a set of safety
goggles in a sealed plastic bag whose label contained the words "99%
Protection From U.V."

Now I'm worried. Ultraviolet radiation from a string trimmer? What's my
lawnmower been exposing me to? Gamma rays? Isn't anything safe any more?
