Sorry, but I have to say one thing about contacts. A rule of thumb we follow in industrial settings is that if a workplace needs an eyewash station, people
who work there should not be wearing contacts.

Please don't drag us back into the contact lens debate! Contact lenses are safe to wear in lab, making sure proper safety eyewear is also worn. If you need
references (going back a decade or more), check the archives.

Subject: [DCHAS-L] Lab PPE Update and Request
Hi all-
I want to thank you again for your help and response on the LAB PPE response to Yoga or Synthetic Pants and exposed ankles. We would like to make a major overhaul to the safety language in our department. I am reaching out to the group
again for some additional help. If anybody is willing to share some proper language or examples of proper PPE rules for undergraduate college labs. I would really appreciate as we make some major changes to reflect these small details. Also does anybody know
the exact language about contacts under safety glasses? Is is allowable or not? Thanks for all your help and guidance.
Thanks,
Aniello Tambasco
