As to
statutes, if you dig into the ANSI standards for manufacturing eye protection,
you will find language to the effect that safety glasses are intended for
impact protection and splash goggles are intended for splash protection. They
don't prohibit the wearing of safety glasses where there are splashes, but
neither do they endorse the practice.
