UCSD
Please forgive me for disagreeing with the lab safety guru, but in
our neck of the woods it is hard enough to get lab personnel to wear safety
glasses, let alone wear goggles. Here we require goggles when there is a
significant splash hazard but for light-to-moderate work in your typical
research lab we require safety glasses with side shields.
Unlike Jim
who feels the producers are "totally wrong", IMHO this video can help us
increase the use of eye protection. Bravo and thank you
UCSD!
