If you find one, I would like to know which one so I can get some too.
Thanks,

Subject: [DCHAS-L] Looking for REALLY Anti-fog Chemical Splash Goggles


 Hi,


 I have a researcher wants to work with one of the nastier acute toxins and
 is pushing back against wearing safety goggles (our requirement when worki
ng with acute toxins, among others) because "within 5 minutes of wearing th
em, they fog up".  We are currently using the "Revolution" goggle with Visi
clear antifog coating (from Jackson Safety)...I haven't heard anyone else c
omplain, but maybe this researcher has a really high body temperature norma
lly, or just sweats a lot, who knows?


 If you can recommend a different goggle--and I'd be willing to pay $25-40 
for a pair if they WOULD NOT FOG--I would be very interested.  I am thinkin
g that facilities handling Select Agents and/or manufacturing facilities ha
ndling acute toxins have people in these for a good couple of hours at a ti
me.  I don't need to know what your 'nasty' is--but I am very interested in
 hearing from anyone at commercial facilities as well as academic.


 Many thanks to all-

 Margaret
