Safety Goggles

[Schedar]

I've poked around some of the old threads, but didn't find anything I loved and wanted to try asking again — does anyone have recommendations for chemically sealed (i.e. COVID-proof, to the extent possible) lab goggles for hospital PPE wear, available for individual purchase, that give minimal headaches and are decently adjustable? Thank you in advance!

I bought a pair of SolidWork safety googles (search for them on Amazon - they have a blue "rubber" gasket to seal against your face). They're quite comfortable and I could wear them for several hours without any discomfort. I don't like the adjustment mechanism and I wish there was a snapping mechanism or something like that to actually put them on (you just slide them on to your head to put them on), but other than that I'm a fan.

I would NOT recommend recommend the AmazonBasics version of these goggles. They look very similar and are super cheap which makes them tempting, but the "gasket" is much stiffer and extremely uncomfortable.

The best protection is a face shield with mask.
