I need to buy saftey glasses for Pharmacy... does anyone know any good brands or shops to buy a good pair from?

Thanx

Well, there's a shop in Collins St in Melbourne where I buy all my saftey eye-glasses from. You should go there.

Me too! I fly down there and buy a pair because they're that great. Premium plastic, side eye protection and great ear hooks so they just don't fall off.

any hardware store will have them. I got some with a course i did (which involved being near industrial machines) - They are a generic brand but have Aus Standard 1337.1 written on the side.

Have you tried bunnings?

Thanx guys .... i havn't tried bunnings. Do you need special ones for chemistry though? ... or just cheap ones?

You could buy cheap saftey glasses at Bunnings, or ones that are slightly more expensive. Just go check them out, im sure that they're like the ones that you'll be needing.

Have a look at them in the store, i mean safetly glasses are meant to be shatter proof. As for chemicals I'm not 100% sure - i always thought they just stopped the "initial blow" of chemicals etc and deflect it (onto the face instead etc lol)

Mine look a bit like that - http://www.citylivingstores.com/mas_assets/full/541146.jpg
Work fine tbh - although ive never tested them lol

if ure making cocaine or MDMA or meth.. then u might want a face shield and a respirator.. these are from ure industrial chem shop tat supply labs.

probably not, i think they have to meet an australian standard (which some sunnies probably do!)

I know you can buy those full face shields from bunnings too. As for a respirator - they have them for certain amounts of dangerous fumes.

lol is it really guna be that dangerous?:S, i dont think theyre guna let u handle very dangerous chemicals, it says that the plastic ones are generally easily scratched but it says that they are satisfactory so im sure you dont really need a face mask lol:S, from what a few friends doing pharmacy say that most of the dangerous materials are handled by the tutor and you dont really get to handle very dangerous materials unless ur in higher years. Look at biology, we cant even get scalpels yet lol not allowed.

lol really, hahaha how shit, i think we did something similar at school we were boiling purple cabbage, and our teacher kept telling us to keep our glasses on even tho they had so many scratches on i cudnt even see wtf i was boiling, thats what u get wen u pay 200 a year on public education which then refunds 50 bux back to you at the end of the year so that ud come back the next year. shit but true.
