[Histonet] Eye Protection Question

[Joe Nocito]

Jordon,
we have full-face safety shields as well as surgical masks with an attached
eye shield. We wear either when changing the staining machines and tissue
processors. When I gross, I wear my eyeglasses that are classified as safety
wear. We have never had an incident, but we flush our eyewash stations
weekly because you never know what will happen.

Good Morning!

What kind of eye protection are technicians required to  wear in the
laboratory during grossing, sectioning, processor maintenance, etc.?

Thanks and have a great day.
