      I tend to wear glasses in the laboratory rather than goggle. They don’t steam up as readily!

      I prefer lab glasses as I find them more comfortable than goggles.

      I prefer to wear googles, as I work with explosives, I think googles are more protective for me. I also need special goggles to protect my eyes from UV radiation.

      I wear lab glasses! Definitely more comfortable – we have snazzy orange ones we have to wear to protect our eyes when we are using photochemistry kit which uses a blue light. They make everything look so sunny! Kind of disappointing when you take them off….
