On trouve l'expression «protection contre les projections de produits chimiques» dans la norme AFNOR S77-103 et dans le document AFNOR-28 (Recueil de normes françaises de sécurité et protection individuelles), 1983, p. 606. On peut donc parler de lunettes de protection contre les produits chimiques, ou de protection contre les projections de produits chimiques, puisque ce sont pratiquement toujours sous forme de projections que les produits chimiques risquent d'atteindre les yeux. On trouve aussi dans certains ouvrages des termes spécifiques, comme «lunettes (de protection) contre les produits corrosifs», ou «lunettes antiacide», «lunettes de protection contre les acides», que l'on peut employer si le contexte le permet, c'est-à-dire s'il est question de protection contre ce type de produits. 7, record 7, French, - lunettes%20protectrices%20contre%20les%20agents%20chimiques

«Éclabousser» veut dire «Couvrir d'un liquide salissant qu'on a fait rejaillir accidentellement», et «éclaboussure» désigne une goutte d'un liquide salissant qui a rejailli. Ce côté «salissant» ne se rapporte pas, à notre avis, à la notion de cette fiche. C'est pourquoi nous pensons que «lunettes antiéclaboussures», ou «contre les éclaboussures», sont des expressions douteuses. 7, record 7, French, - lunettes%20protectrices%20contre%20les%20agents%20chimiques
